Forensic Doctor

Elias Cross wanted nothing more than to disappear. Once the city’s most brilliant forensic architect, he vanished after a scandal that destroyed his career. But when an old friend turns up dead — and the body is staged inside one of Elias’s abandoned designs — he’s pulled back into a world he swore he’d left behind. Each crime scene is a building. Each building is a clue. Each clue points to an impossible blueprint for the city’s destruction. With only a reckless journalist and a washed-up detective by his side, Elias must outwit a ghostly mastermind known only as The Mason. But as the city becomes a maze of deadly puzzles, Elias discovers the final design isn’t about buildings. It’s about him.

Detective Adrian Cross, a man haunted by the mistakes of his past, is called to investigate a string of murders that seem to carry no connection. But as the trail deepens, he uncovers signs of a vast, unseen network pulling the city’s strings—one that has already destroyed countless lives, including his former partner’s. To unravel the conspiracy, Adrian is paired with Mara Vey, a brilliant yet enigmatic forensic analyst. Their partnership begins with suspicion and constant clashes, but slowly, their undeniable chemistry becomes a weapon against an enemy who always seems one step ahead. As the bodies stack higher and the danger tightens, Adrian and Mara are drawn into a game where every clue costs blood and every wrong move could mean death. Allies are scarce, betrayal is everywhere, and the mastermind behind the syndicate remains just out of reach until the final arc, when the truth threatens to break them both. Echoes in the Dark blends clever schemes, intense confrontations, and relentless twists into a suspense-filled journey where trust is scarce, and justice is anything but clean.
