When a string of ritualistic murders strikes the rain-soaked streets of Crescent Heights, each crime marked by a bouquet of bloodied roses and a single matchstick, Detective Celia Hart finds herself drawn into a case unlike any she's faced before.

The victims share no clear connection—except the symbolism left at each scene and the lingering sense of something ancient lurking beneath the surface. But when a frightened survivor named Eliza Quinn whispers of a forbidden manuscript called The Ash Protocol, Celia's investigation veers into dangerous territory—where reality begins to fracture, and obsession takes root.

As she uncovers the dark history behind the Protocol and the man who carries it like scripture, Celia must confront not only a killer who believes he’s enacting divine will—but a secret so buried it rewrites everything she thought she knew about the city, the victims, and herself.

Some books don’t want to be found.
This one refuses to be forgotten.

Mara pressed the rusted gate of St. Jude’s with her shoulder, and it creaked open like a confession. The orphanage loomed ahead, bones of a building left to rot, yet not quite dead. Fog pressed against its windows. The kind of place that remembered too much.
