Two candles flaring at a Christmas crib. A nurse who steps inside a church to light them. A gunshot emptied in a man's head in the creaking stillness before dawn, that the nurse says she didn't hear.

Drawing inspiration from classic detective fiction, this author masterfully captures the atmosphere of a city, its moods, and its characters. Their writing style immerses the reader, guiding them through gritty streets and quiet corners as if looking over the narrator's shoulder. The focus is on establishing a strong sense of place and portraying the unique individuals inhabiting that setting, creating a compelling narrative where the environment itself is as vital as the plot.
