Résumé
Lord Edric Hallvane died quietly in a darkened study. According to the Mage's Guild, a catastrophic overload of his light magic killed him. Private investigator Cyrus Blackstone knows that is impossible. Light magic disperses outward. It does not collapse inward without scorching everything around it. Someone falsified the Guild's findings-and Edric's daughter, Isolde, believes the lie conceals whatever her father discovered during the final months of his life.
The case brings Cyrus a burned trail of secret correspondence, unregistered Message Orbs, a cloaked visitor concealing their magical signature, and a strange circular symbol carved beneath Edric's desk. Then lens-grinder Pell Ashfeld arrives with another mystery: his sister Mira, an archivist at the Arcane Academy, disappeared after uncovering something hidden in Baymoor's neglected pre-founding records.
The two investigations are connected. Mira's concealed notes reveal that another civilization occupied the land long before Baymoor existed. The Duskborn did not perish. They deliberately descended into the ancient ley-line nexus beneath the city, leaving behind an interface known as the Cradle-an immense mechanism designed to communicate with whatever still exists within the deepest magical channels.
For centuries, a secret organization has preserved that knowledge and worked toward the Cradle's activation. Its members have infiltrated the Guild, the Academy, and the institutions governing Baymoor. They murdered Edric, imprisoned Mira, and will eliminate anyone who threatens the Continuing Work. If activated, the Cradle will use every ley-lamp, tram, ward, and enchanted structure in Baymoor as part of its transmission system.
At best, the city's magical infrastructure will collapse temporarily. At worst, the entire ley-line grid will become a self-sustaining amplifier for a signal no living mage understands. To prevent it, Cyrus must follow the evidence beneath the city, expose officials protected by the Guild, rescue an archivist who knows too much, and confront an ancient magic that responds to his shadow affinity as though it recognizes him.
Where Shadows Fall launches The Cyrus Blackstone Mysteries, an arcane mystery fantasy series of magical forensics, institutional secrets, buried civilizations, dangerous conspiracies, and an independent investigator willing to follow the truth into the places Baymoor keeps deliberately dark.
