Claw (Book 1)

In a world where art and darkness intertwine, Dante is a complex figure, embodying both creation and destruction. As a skilled skin artist, he wields his needle with precision, crafting intricate tattoos that tell stories of love, loss, and even redemption. Yet, behind his artistic facade lies a tumultuous past, haunted by the blood of those he has taken. When a deeply religious couple enlists his services to confront a mysterious affliction plaguing their community, Dante finds himself drawn into a web of secrets that challenge his very soul.

As he delves deeper into his assignment, the line between his role as a healer and his darker inclinations begins to blur. The hidden motivations of those around him ignite an internal struggle, forcing him to confront the choices he has made and the life he wishes to lead. With each new revelation, Dante must navigate a path rife with peril, pushing him to question what it truly means to wield both healing and harm.
