Dylan Shepherd—operative turned pariah—confronts the shadows born from the missions he never wanted to survive.

And Thread, the prototype daughter raised from regret and war, must decide whether to continue their legacy… or end it.

After exposing a government-run erasure project in The Inlet Files, former journalist Carl Colvin retreats to the woods to write a book about women who kill. But when letters start arriving—each bearing photos of victims murdered in chilling synchronicity with his abandoned chapters—Carl realizes this isn’t research. It’s invitation. Someone has been reading his drafts. And now she’s writing her own. As Carl races to decode a killer’s narrative, past omissions resurface—victims he overlooked, testimonies he failed to protect, and the woman who’s turned editing into execution.

Black Violet is more than a detective agency. It’s the last defense against mysteries that rewrite reality. Run by three women bound by fate and fractured timelines, the agency unravels cases whispered through forgotten letters, broken timepieces, and photographs that shouldn't exist. Across ten interconnected investigations—each darker than the last—Dakota, Brooke, and Alice confront ghosts both literal and metaphorical, uncovering a conspiracy of erased identities, buried legacies, and a force that’s been archiving their lives before they were even born.
