Listening for the Wind in a Sea of Spies

Touch the dead to capture their lingering sounds, go undercover on both sides to tear apart the enemy's spy network. In 1939, on Shanghai's isolated island, Juntong agent Lin Xun narrowly escapes death and awakens a sound-capturing ability. By touching objects tainted with murderous intent and classified secrets, he can retrieve the crucial whispers last sealed within them. But his power captures only fragments of sound and cannot read people's hearts. Every code name and cipher must be deciphered the hard way, while the Kempeitai's hounds and hidden traitors close in at every turn. Amid a sea of blood, darkness, and lies, he makes himself a blade and carves a path forward along the knife's edge.
