Description
In the backdrop of a newly independent Edinburgh in 2020, the city grapples with a wave of fear as a chilling series of murders unfolds. The streets, known for their rich history and vibrant culture, now echo with whispers of dread and suspicion. As the police scramble to make sense of the brutality, the community is left on edge, struggling to reconcile its newfound freedom with the shadows lurking within.
Amidst the turmoil, individuals find themselves entangled in a web of political intrigue and personal stakes. Alliances form and fracture as secrets emerge, and the investigation becomes a reflection of the social tensions and power dynamics in this transformed society. With each revelation, the pursuit of justice blurs the lines between morality and survival, challenging the characters to confront their own beliefs and motivations in a tightly-knit yet increasingly divided environment.
