Three years ago, in a carefully staged fake death, he vanished from his lover’s world for good.
Three years later, the bloodstains in the art gallery have yet to dry. Two people burdened with secrets meet again across the police cordon.
There is no warmth in their reunion, only old feelings and cautious probing. He thought he had escaped the past, unaware that fate had already woven a vast net around him. His adoptive father’s gaze is a shackle; his blood relatives wield blades; even the sermon that “human nature is evil” is bound to his bloodline.
Hell seems endless, yet he insists on cupping that tiny light that refuses to go out, crossing the long night alone to reach the promise made without deceit.
Theme: Love and letting go, justice and evil.
