Known for his keen observational skills and rational thinking, Sheringham dives headfirst into the enigmatic world of crime and deception.

The deeper he investigates, the more he realizes that appearances can be deceiving, making it difficult to discern friend from foe. The elusiveness of the truth challenges his intellect and determination, pushing him to explore the darker recesses of human nature.
