Hired by her enigmatic grandfather, she delves into a mysterious case that unveils secrets from the past, forcing her to confront her roots and the weight of expectations that come with them.

Her journey is not just about solving a mystery; it is a profound exploration of what it means to belong, to forge one's own identity, and to understand the intricate ties that bind generations. The vibrant backdrop of her Chinatown community serves as both a setting and a reflection of her internal struggles.

The narrative blends suspense and introspection, revealing how the past inevitably shapes the future, and how understanding one's history can pave the way for self-discovery and acceptance.
