Neo-Seattle, 2077. A city drowning in rain and dragon-fire, where chrome skyscrapers pierce a sky choked with emerald flames. Gargoyles, bio-engineered dragon hybrids, stalk the rain-slicked streets, their obsidian eyes reflecting the city’s brutal duality. Magic isn’t a myth, but a raw, pulsating current exploited by a ruthless underworld that traffics in sentient dragon scales – scales that whisper secrets of unimaginable power.
Detective Marcus Cain knows this city’s darkness intimately. Haunted by the unsolved murder of his dragon-activist mother, he walks a tightrope between grief and grit, his pursuit of justice a flickering ember against the encroaching ice age that threatens the fragile peace between humans and dragons.
When a young dragon is found brutally slain, its scales ripped away, Marcus plunges into the investigation, drawn into the hypnotic depths of the Serpent’s Kiss, a clandestine nightclub pulsating with dragon song and illicit deals. There, amidst the swirling smoke and predatory gazes, he confronts the wreckage of his family: Alyssa, his estranged sister, now a key player in the brutal scale trade, her transformation as chilling as the glacial winds sweeping in from the north.
Forced to partner with Devin Nelson, a jaded emerald-scaled dragon informant whose past is intertwined with the Serpent's Kiss, Marcus navigates a treacherous labyrinth of secrets and lies. Their investigation unearths a conspiracy far deeper than mere trafficking: a fanatical sect known as the Obsidian Claw, led by the charismatic Silas Thorne, seeks to summon Xylos, a primordial dragon god capable of plunging the world into an eternal winter.
Alyssa, seduced by the Obsidian Claw's twisted promise of power, becomes Marcus's greatest obstacle. The city council, riddled with Claw sympathizers, obstructs his every move. And the dragons themselves, wary of human interference, withdraw into their enclaves, creating a volatile powder keg on the brink of detonation.
As the Obsidian Claw prepares for the summoning ritual, Marcus must confront not only a city on the edge of chaos but the ghosts of his own past. He discovers a chilling link between his mother's murder and the Claw's apocalyptic agenda, a hidden truth that will force him to make the ultimate sacrifice. In a final, desperate gambit, Marcus and Devin infiltrate the Claw's hidden temple, a cavern carved into the heart of Mount Rainier, where Alyssa stands poised to play a crucial role in the ritual. Can Marcus break through his sister's icy facade and shatter the Obsidian Claw's grip before Xylos’s chilling reign of eternal winter consumes them all?
