Claudia Vale lives by evidence, order, and the law. But the night she touches the blue-book, the rules that kept her sane rip open like a throat under a blade. The book writes back —future deaths scrawled in cold ink, names bleeding into the margins, warnings that come true in bodies left twisted and emptied exactly as described. Someone is using the book to kill. Someone is using her to choose who dies next. And the city answers to a law older and uglier than anything she’s ever seen in court. Then he steps into her world.
