Set in a nameless metropolis drenched in rain and neon light, the story follows private investigator Julian Cross, a disillusioned former journalist turned gumshoe. Julian spends his days nursing cheap whiskey and solving minor cases for even cheaper pay. When an elegant and mysterious woman, Evelyn Blackwell, hires him to find her missing stepdaughter, Vivienne Stokes, Julian thinks it’s just another routine case. Vivienne was last seen leaving an exclusive gala at the sprawling Glasshouse Hotel, a modernist masterpiece filled with mirrored halls, labyrinthine corridors, and an eerie sense of surveillance. As Julian digs deeper, he uncovers disturbing secrets about the hotel’s wealthy patrons, their hidden vices, and Evelyn’s true motives. The deeper Julian delves, the more the case becomes personal: clues suggest a connection to his estranged father, a disgraced cop who disappeared years ago. Haunted by fragmented memories, Julian begins to unravel not only the mystery but his own sense of identity. Julian discovers that his father didn’t disappear but was killed by Simon Glass after uncovering his criminal empire. Julian’s investigation brings justice, but it’s hollow—Evelyn uses the chaos to assume control of Simon’s empire, becoming the very corruption she claimed to hate.
