"Rosa de la Mort"
In the restless city of California, Detective Thomas Grey is transferred to confront the darkness his colleagues fear most-a shadow that leaves a single rose in the wake of its bloodshed. Known only as Rosa de la Mort, this elusive serial killer strikes without warning, vanishing as quickly as she appears. Rumors say that anyone who catches even a glimpse of her meets their end within minutes.
As Thomas follows a trail of roses through twisted crime scenes, he uncovers whispers of a curse, a mysterious figure from her past pulling the strings, and a young girl's haunting memory that may hold the key to stopping her. But when the hunter becomes the hunted, Thomas realizes his greatest challenge isn't just to survive, but to look this specter of death in the eye without ever looking at her.
In this deadly game of cat and mouse, he'll have to break every rule he knows... if he wants to catch her before she strikes again.
