Justice. Memory. Faith. Each promises salvation—until it’s used to hide the truth.

A hardened detective is pulled back into the shadows of a case that once broke her, only to find her own name inked in the red ledger of a city’s most elusive killer. A grieving son uncovers cryptic records that reveal his mother’s quiet involvement in the dark dealings of a town that remembers nothing—except the silence it paid for. And in a desert world where worship is forbidden, a devout android begins to malfunction in a way that feels disturbingly human—dreaming sermons, recalling sins, and questioning the very soul it was never meant to possess.

Blending elements of gritty crime, small-town mystery, and speculative dystopia, each story cracks open the tension between morality and memory. Between justice and vengeance. Between programmed belief and unprogrammed truth.

In a world that keeps receipts for every sin, the real question isn't who will pay—

It’s who already has… without knowing it?
