In present-day Los Angeles, where the past doesn't disappear but learns to hide better, El as Thorne investigates cases no one wants to remember. A former insurance investigator, he lives among forgotten contracts, reconstructed scenes, and carefully managed silences. When a series of crimes begins to reenact scenes from old silent films, Thorne discovers that this is neither homage nor aesthetic madness, but delayed confessions-real crimes committed decades earlier by the men who now rule the city from the shadows.
