Description

In the sweltering heat of a summer day in 1904, tragedy strikes the city of New York as the General Slocum, a passenger steamboat, meets a catastrophic end. Through the chaos of the disaster, Simon Ziele, a thirty-year-old detective, finds himself drawn into a complex mystery that intertwines personal loss and the darker undercurrents of the city he calls home. The event is not just a disaster; it becomes a catalyst that propels him into the depths of Gotham's hidden shadows.

As Simon navigates the aftermath of the tragedy, he finds clues that lead him deeper into a network of crime and betrayal, forcing him to confront both the harsh realities of urban life and his own inner demons. Every turn reveals more secrets, compelling him to balance his duty as a detective with a quest for justice that becomes increasingly personal.

Set against the backdrop of a city on the brink of transformation, the narrative explores themes of resilience, loss, and the relentless pursuit of truth. As Simon digs into the roots of the disaster, he uncovers not only the intricacies of the human condition but also the haunting echoes of a society grappling with its own identity. The journey that unfolds is as much about uncovering the past as it is about defining the future.
