He predicts death with canvas and conceals the truth with paint. He is a genius painter and the perfect assassin for the “Raven” organization: Jiang Huai.
When collectors begin dying in bizarre suicides that mirror scenes in his paintings, criminal investigator Wei Wei takes the case, only to find himself stepping into a carefully laid artistic trap. An X-ray scan reveals that each painting conceals more than a thousand images, with the victim’s own death portrait at the very bottom.
The deeper Wei Wei investigates, the further he sinks. Jiang Huai’s paintings are like curses: they can peer into the deepest fears of the human heart and make them real. Is it supernatural magic, or the ultimate form of psychological manipulation?
As the line between the two men blurs and they move from opposition toward something less clear, Wei Wei must risk everything. Is he facing a cold-blooded monster, or a prisoner yearning for redemption? And whose face will appear in the next deadly painting?
