Crimson Silence: "Order Of The Unseen"
Thornburghshire had always been a city of quiet rot-its corners dressed in order, but its bones brittle with secrets. After their last case nearly tore the city's justice system apart, Detective Yuki and newly promoted Detective Jelly are back on the streets, chasing something colder than a corpse and slicker than truth: a kidnapping. Eliza Whitmore, daughter of the mayor, vanishes without a trace one damp morning. What starts as a high-profile missing persons case soon coils into something far uglier-evidence pointing to a buried network pulling the strings behind the city's decay. A name surfaces like a whispered curse: The Order of the Unseen. As the detectives wade deeper into corruption and ritual, the mayor unveils a key figure-Colonel David Kane, his trusted advisor and enforcer. But Yuki knows that name. She remembers the man. He helped raise her brother Nisbet before his untimely death, and now stands as a ghost from a past she thought she'd buried. What follows is a descent into loyalty twisted by manipulation, regret sharpened into rage, and a partnership that begins to fray under the weight of truth. For Yuki and Jelly, the line between justice and revenge has never been thinner-and this time, crossing it might cost them everything.Complete
