Twenty-six-year-old Chen Du has a secret: when he touches a dead person's skin, he can see the last three seconds of their life. On his first night shift at the funeral home on the west side of the city, a woman's body is pulled from the river. He touches her forehead and sees three seconds of footage: someone pushed her into the river.
She didn't kill herself.
And on the wall of the morgue, five rules have appeared from nowhere. Follow them, and you might live until dawn. Break them, and you'll become the next body on the slab.
From that night on, every corpse brought in carries a secret only Chen Du can see.
