"They didn't just kill them. They stole their voices." Detective Adrian Cole is brilliant, emotionally detached, and clinical. But nothing prepares him for the geometric precision of the city’s latest serial killer. The victims are left with no signs of physical struggle, their mouths meticulously stitched shut and encircled by flawless, cryptic symbols. What begins as a high-profile investigation quickly turns deeply personal. The killer isn't choosing random targets—every crime scene forms a hidden pattern connected to long-buried, unsolved cases from Adrian's own past. Cases he intentionally tried to forget. When the killer begins leaving messages addressing him directly, Adrian realizes this isn't just a game of cat and mouse. The killer knows his secrets, his confidential files, and his darkest history. To stop the body count from rising, Adrian must confront the truth of what he did years ago—because he might not just be the man hunting the monster. He might be the key to the mystery itself. What to expect: A dark, mind-bending psychological thriller filled with tension, a deeply flawed detective, clever deduction, and an overarching mystery that will keep you guessing until the final chapter.
