Silence & Justice.
Seraphina never wanted to be a hero. She just wanted quiet mornings in Tagaytay, a strong cup of coffee, and laughter from her little sister, Celine.

But when her own sister goes missing, she realizes that some things can't be healed - they can only be hunted. Every clue leads her deeper into a dark web of lies, corruption, and secrets that reach far beyond what she ever imagined.

Together, they walk a road filled with danger, betrayal, and bloodstained truths. Each night grows colder. Each secret cuts deeper. And the more Seraphina learns, the more she wonders if justice still exists... or if it's just another word used to hide the monsters in power.
