In the sprawling, shadowed labyrinth of Greater Manchester, where gleaming skyscrapers meet forgotten alleys, a new kind of detective emerges. Ryan Shale, a young officer haunted by the city's dark underbelly, is thrust into a chilling case: the discovery of a child's body, bearing horrifying similarities to an unsolved murder. As he grapples with the grim reality, an enigmatic, sightless busker named Jake Taberner enters his life, claiming to hear the voices of the dead and possessing knowledge no living person should. Can Ryan navigate the spectral truths Jake offers and the brutal realities of his world to seek justice for the voiceless children, or will the darkness consume them both?
