Zak Vincent, a cold blooded killer who goes by the name of 'The Voice at Dusk', is a top student at the Arkh Ministry. When he makes a drunk deal with his tutor: Master Andrew Harkness to assassinate the Governor, he sparks a civil war between the Ministries. 30 years later, Zak is a captured criminal by the doctor, Sebastian Walter who will punish Zak by death. However, unlike any other criminal, the doctor will allow Zak to choose the way in which he will die. In the introductory novella to a three-part story spanning three decades, Oliver Lewis packs a punch with this fast-paced, blood-soaked fantasy.
