No one knows what happened in that study.
Shen Yue is dead. Thirty-one years old, a financial analyst, he died on the carpet in his own home. There was no struggle, no defensive wounds, and the door was ajar. Every piece of evidence speaks, but each tells a different story.
I was called in as a consultant. My job is to analyze the scene, interpret the evidence, and find the truth. I've seen too many crime scenes, too many dead people, too many lies. I thought this case would be no different.

The final sentence will make you turn back to the first page.
