In the neon-drenched city of Duskwire, where magic hums beneath the streets and technology casts long shadows, the impossible is just another night’s work for Malik Rune and Mira Devereaux.

Malik is an Echoborn—a man trapped in a cycle of death and rebirth, each return stripping away pieces of his memory. With centuries of forgotten lives behind him, only Mira, his sharp-witted assistant and lover, anchors him to the present. Together, they run an underground detective agency specializing in the paranormal cases the city’s overstretched police force won’t touch.

When a high-profile murder leaves a corporate mage ripped apart from the inside, the Duskwire Police call on Malik and Mira to investigate. But the deeper they dig, the stranger the clues become—phantom echoes, forbidden magic, and a shadowy force that seems to know Malik’s forgotten past.

As the bodies pile up and Malik’s resurrections grow more unstable, he and Mira must race against time to unravel the mystery. But in Duskwire, the dead never stay buried—and some secrets refuse to die.
