About this listen

“Every strand tells a story. Every cut leaves one behind.”

In the rain-slick streets of Chicago, justice has a new barber.

Miles Carter runs a quiet corner shop — Carter’s Cuts — where the chair never stays cold and every customer leaves looking clean. But when headlines begin echoing the same names that once sat in his chair, detectives find a pattern too precise to ignore.

Each victim was guilty — each had escaped conviction — and at every crime scene lies a single clue: strands of hair belonging to someone else who once got away with murder.

Miles isn’t killing for revenge. He’s correcting the balance.
Until the city begins to hum.

As the murders ripple through Chicago’s undercurrent, the walls of the shop start whispering back — mirrors warping, razors singing, and a legacy far older than Miles awakening beneath the streets. When others begin hearing the same sound — Mara Quin, the detective obsessed with finding him; Evelyn Vale, the woman who inherits the chair; and finally a boy who hears the city breathe — the question becomes not who’s killing, but what has learned to listen.

The Cut That Bled Twice is a haunting urban noir about guilt, legacy, and the thin, gleaming line between punishment and mercy.
