The hit danmei thriller from the author behind Guardian: Zhen Hun and Stars of Chaos: Sha Po
Lang –both available from Seven Seas! A young man’s body is found outside a glitzy high-rise
on the West Side of Yancheng—dressed for celebration strangled and left with a sheet of paper
covering his face. One word is scrawled across it: money . To Sergeant Luo Wenzhou head of
the Criminal Investigation Team at the Yancheng Municipal Public Safety Bureau it’s just
another case in a city rife with power plays and buried secrets. But as he digs deeper with his
team what begins as a straightforward homicide unravels into something far murkier—reaching
into the city’s darkest corners of wealth privilege and police corruption. And then there’s
Fei Du: the aloof razor-sharp CEO of the Fei Corporation who seems to know far too much about
the murder—and about Luo Wenzhou himself. Once a troubled youth with ties to Luo’s past Fei Du
now walks a fine line between brilliant ally and inscrutable suspect. His insights are
disturbingly precise. His motives? Frustratingly opaque. As the investigation twists through
layers of trauma and moral ambiguity Luo Wenzhou finds himself reluctantly drawn toward the
very man who unsettles him most. But in a city where justice is easily bought and truth wears
many masks can either man afford to trust the other? This limited Special Edition contains
the Standard Edition but with bonus merchandise shrinkwrapped to the book: a special police
badge and detective’s notebook a double-sided bookmark and a sticker sheet. Don't miss the
new art from guest artists included in this special merch!
