The Informant
Someone on the inside is talking. Every month, the documents arrive at your door.
Serialized mob fiction · delivered as physical correspondence
Locked for life. 300 spots only. No renewals at this rate.
You are not a reader.
You are a handler.
Every month, a physical package arrives at your door. Inside: intercepted memos, handwritten letters, surveillance reports, and documents leaked from deep inside the Vega Outfit — a Cuban-American crime organization operating out of Miami in 1983.
You don't receive a novel. You receive intelligence. The kind that gets people killed. The Informant is serialized mob fiction delivered as in-universe physical correspondence — s one monthly package, twelve issues per year, one criminal organization slowly unraveling.
What they said
when the documents arrived
The format is genius. It naturally builds anticipation. Exceptional writing and world building — I can't wait to see more.
The Informant is literally the only thing I look forward to when I go to the mailbox. The package is well thought out and really makes you feel like you're in the story.
I read the preliminary story and I can't wait for it to start. I want to know how this all unfolds.
What arrives in your mailbox
Every package contains a curated set of in-universe documents — physical artifacts from inside the Vega Outfit. Printed on period-appropriate paper stock. Aged. Real.
Handwritten correspondence between key figures. Personal. Incriminating. Occasionally encrypted.
Typed directives from leadership. Orders that reveal the hierarchy — and who's being played.
Field notes from someone watching. Who's watching whom is part of the mystery.
Hand-annotated locations, routes, and organizational charts. The kind you're not supposed to have.
Photographs, receipts, clippings. Physical details that make the world real.
Each issue includes something that changes what you thought you knew. The story is never what it appears.
From inside the Outfit
These are the kinds of documents that arrive. Every month. In your mailbox. From people who don't exist.

RE: Port arrangement
The arrangement with XXXXXXXXXX stands. Do not contact him directly. The money moves through the fish company on Thursday. After that, we don't discuss it again.
Burn this.
Date: Nov 9, 1983 · Analyst: XXXXXXX

Manny —
I know what you're being asked to do. I know who asked you. Whatever he told you about me, you need to understand something: he is not protecting you. He is using you.
Do not be in that building on Friday.

When I came across the story of this Cuban family and the empire they built, I had one thought: someone has to tell this story the right way. So I built The Informant.
The mail format wasn't a gimmick. I want every document, every piece of aged paper that arrives at your door, to feel like it actually came out of 1983 Miami — not a simulation of that world, but an artifact from it.
300 spots.
Gone when they're gone.
The Informant launches with a founding cohort of 300 subscribers. This price never comes back. When these spots are claimed, the price goes to $14.99/month — permanently.

- Serialized mob fiction set in 1983 Miami — exclusive to subscribers
- Founder rate locked permanently — never increases
- First packages ship to founding cohort before general launch
- Your name in the founding subscriber record — you were here first
Regular pricing: $14.99/month or $149/year after launch
The things people ask
Erik — a serial entrepreneur who came across the story of a Cuban-American crime family operating out of 1980s Miami and became obsessed with finding a way to tell it. The Informant is the result. The fiction is original. The world it's drawn from is not.
Founder packages ship before the general launch. You'll receive updates throughout the build — you'll know exactly when your first package is on its way.
Physical documents — letters, memos, surveillance reports, maps, and other artifacts — printed and finished to look like they came out of 1983 Miami. Every item is in-universe. Nothing breaks the fiction.
The series is serialized — each issue builds on the last. Founder subscribers start from Issue 1 and experience the story from the beginning.
Neither. There is no book. You receive original fiction written as primary source documents — correspondence, intelligence reports, and artifacts from inside a fictional criminal organization. You're the one putting the story together.
Once 300 spots are claimed, the founder offer closes. The regular rate is $14.99/month or $149/year — $50 more per year than what founders pay. The founder rate is permanent for those who claim it.
Yes. The Informant ships to both the US and Canada.
