**AMBYS 2022 WINNER** He'll never play piano again. That's what virtuoso pianist Zephyr has vowed to himself after escaping Sigma, the sprawling criminal organisation that once held him--and still holds his friends--captive in California's mega-city capital, Maria. After being forced to entertain Sigma's clients with more intimate services than just music, Zephyr is determined to use his knowledge of the labyrinthine plots and power-struggles between Sigma's gang members to save his trapped friends and find his family, who are mysteriously untraceable by South Korean authorities.
But Zephyr's vow to abandon piano is tested by his uneasy alliance with Will, the timid stranger who whisked Zephyr out of Sigma's clutches under cover of a mysterious fire. Will's secretive nature can't hide tantalising hints of his deep connection to music, nor can Will hide the tangled web of his dark past. In a race against time to prevent his family and friends from becoming Sigma's latest targets, Zephyr must discover if Will's true goal is to help him, or to lure him deeper into peril, as they spiral inexorably together.
