Plot

This article contains spoilers! You were warned.

Chapter One

Sheriff Oren Loper and Deputy Nessie Squires investigate the discovery of the corpse of a young man who went missing a week ago with his brother. When they arrive at the scene they find him mutilated with a rune carved into his forehead. The body's in front of a large abandoned plantation. They investigate and end up going toe-to-toe with a murderous one-eyed mage, managing to escape with their lives thanks to the undertaker. They find the second brother, but he dies soon after.

Chapter Two

Oren's called away from Hearthback by Allen Arbock, a recently murdered CEO in the body of the Hatchtown Hacker, an infamous serial killer. He ends up solving the case thanks to interviews, reasoning, and several suspicious marks. He is hindered along the way by Ferdinand Blejwas, a bent cop with the city under his control. The criminal's eventually brought to justice, and Oren heads back to Nessie and home with a fuller wallet and a new enemy in the city.
