THE TRAPPED! TRILOGY
Three decades. Three manors. One mad scientist. Dozens of memorable characters.

From the roaring 1930s to the psychedelic 1960s to the neon-drenched 1980s, The TRAPPED! Trilogy explodes with a wild cocktail of horror, humor, and high-octane espionage. Each book hurls readers head-first into a new decade of delirium, chasing the unhinged genius Dr. Vladislav Volkov—a man who believes world peace starts with a few good monsters and absolutely no humans required.

Across fifty years, Volkov’s experiments spiral from werewolves to cat-vampires to shark-Frankenstein abominations, leaving a trail of terrified (and hopelessly bewildered) spies, cops, and operatives from every corner of the globe. Together, these dysfunctional dream teams stumble, bicker, and occasionally try save the world—all while trapped inside one of three Volkov’s ever-mutating manor labyrinths of bad science, ethically questionable decisions, and gloriously unhinged egomaniacal ramblings.

A genre-bending odyssey through decades of disaster, The TRAPPED! Trilogy fuses historical espionage, creature horror, and jet-black comedy into one sprawling, satirical romp through humanity’s obsession with scientific domination and its spectacular knack for self-destruction.
Each book connects into a grand, genetically unstable saga of ambition, mutation, and survival.

Equal parts pulp, parody, and philosophical panic, the TRAPPED! universe reminds us that science can be terrifying—but bureaucracy, ego, and love triangles are far, far worse.

So pour yourself a glass of your favorite vintage, fasten your garlic necklace, and prepare to get TRAPPED!
Because once you step into Dr. V’s world… escaping is scientifically improbable.
But it’s the most fun you’ll ever have losing your mind.
