Kael, a detective whose past is as murky as the cases he solves, operates with a chilling efficiency that masks a deep-seated vulnerability. Gifted with the ability to see 'echoes' of past events clinging to objects, he can reconstruct crimes with terrifying accuracy, but each vision chips away at his already fractured psyche. When a series of ritualistic murders plague the city, leaving behind cryptic symbols and a pervasive sense of dread, Kael is pulled into a conspiracy far larger than he could imagine. The victims, seemingly random, are connected by a secret society manipulating events from the shadows. Kael must confront not only a relentless killer but also the terrifying truth behind his own abilities, before the city descends into chaos and he loses himself entirely to the echoes of the dead.
