Agent Karl Indigo went undercover for the ATF. He never came back.
Now a crew of ex-soldiers, mercenaries, and wild cards is rising from Miami's neon underworld — armed, dangerous, and hungry for power. Every deal is a gamble. Every rival will kill for your business. Every step forward is one closer to the grave.
Where justice is a lie, and power is paid for in blood.
Miami, 1984. The Gun-Runners are running the city — but the ATF wants revenge, a rival syndicate wants them dead, and Karl Indigo was supposed to be a ghost.
Lamborghinis. Ferraris. A heist that lights up the skyline. And a city erupting into all-out war.
One last run. No extra lives.
Every town has one. The urban legend your parents told you to keep you on your side of the fence after dark.
In Obsidian Hollow, that story belongs to Billy Bob. When a group of teenagers choose the woods for their end-of-term camping trip, they are not thinking about old stories.
They should have listened to their parents.
Jono Way is the creator of the Gun Runners franchise—a neon-soaked, bullet-riddled saga set in the blazing underworld of 1980s Miami. His stories are pure synthwave pulp: cinematic shootouts, corrupted empires, and desperate souls running from the past under the electric glow of pink and purple skies.
An unapologetic child of the 1980s, he was raised on He-Man, Transformers, Thundercats, cassette tapes, rock music, and the holy grail of nostalgia: Saturday morning cartoons and a bowl of cereal bigger than your head. When he writes, he’s channeling the decade that never died—because it still lives in the beat of his heart, the crackle of vinyl, and the guitar solo that kicks in right when you think all hope is lost.
His favorite song of all time?
“The Boys of Summer” by Don Henley—because nothing captures lost time, fading glory, and the ache of memory quite like it.
