April 2000. A man is found murdered in a red-light district.
Coming home late, night after night.
The smell of cigarettes he never smokes.
And lies that make no sense at all.
The man is far too suspicious.
A woman who starts investigating him,
and a detective chasing the killer.
From where each of them stands, their eyes slowly close in on a single case.
Every clue is inside the game.
So — what is it that you are looking at?
