A fog-choked coastal city. A Black homicide detective who refuses to blink. A killer staging baroque, blood-soaked tableaux that speak in a language of bells, salt, and misdirection. Detective Selene Ward follows a trail carved through church belfries, glasshouse gardens, storm tunnels, and shuttered galleries, reading the killer's ritual grammar while old-money gatekeepers tighten their grip on the narrative.
