The city is smiling… and dying.

When a mysterious new drug called Starlight Dust hits the streets, victims are found laughing until their final breath—grins frozen, lungs collapsed, and no trace of the killer. Enter Drex Malachite, a hard-boiled dragon detective with a nose for trouble and a city on the brink of chaos.

What begins as a missing person's case spirals into a theatrical conspiracy led by the shadowy Ember Cabal and their enigmatic mastermind, The Harlequin. As the Dust evolves—turning laughter into rage and rage into violence—the entire city becomes a stage for madness.

With jazz in the air and death in the punchline, Drex must burn through illusion, magic, and mayhem to bring the curtain down… before the whole city dies laughing.
