The Scarlet Docket

In the rain-slicked city of Ashwick, Commonwealth of Meridian, dockworker Elias Kaine witnesses the brutal murder of a journalist by Governor Aldric Hale. What follows is a harrowing descent into a bureaucratic abyss where the law becomes an instrument of annihilation. As Elias is ensnared in a web of fabricated charges, corrupt judges, and merciless prosecutors, he discovers that the legal system is a cold contract designed to protect power, not truth. Aided by a disgraced attorney who once fought the same darkness, Elias must wage a desperate, blood-soaked battle for survival. When conscience and the rigid letter of the law collide, the most helpless souls are always the sacrifice.
