The Luck of Shadows

In the rain-slicked alleys of Ashwick City, private detective Vincent Cole is hired to investigate the baffling death of a financier, a case tangled in the civil suit Wilson v. Anderson et al. As he shadows the prime suspect, an unsettling truth emerges: a faceless silhouette is mirroring his every move. Drawn into a psychological deadlock, Cole discovers that the so-called "perfect crime" was never a stroke of genius—merely the grotesque offspring of blind luck and human sluggishness.
