In the rain-drenched neon sprawl of New Corinth 2038, Elias Thorne and Lira Voss of the Special Investigations Division are sent to investigate an impossible locked-room murder. The victim, an anti-Arcane activist, has been killed using 'phased' magic—a technique involving dimensional shifts and alloy shards. As Elias and Lira utilize their psychic 'metal-sight' to track a mysterious figure named Kane, they must navigate a city rife with anti-magic bigotry and police corruption. This gritty noir blends high-tech investigation with supernatural elements, exploring a dangerous world where the collision of science and the arcane threatens to ignite an urban powder keg. To solve the crime, the duo must survive a landscape where the laws of physics are as fragile as the peace between humans and the gifted. Comparable works include Shadowrun
