## Synopsis

Kenzo Tenma is a brilliant Japanese neurosurgeon building a golden career in Germany until he defies orders to save a critically wounded child instead of a wealthy, well-connected patient. Years later he discovers the boy he rescued, Johan, has become a serene and remorseless killer — and that Tenma is being framed for murders he never committed. What follows is a continent-spanning manhunt in which a good man is forced to ask whether some lives should ever be saved at all. There's almost no fantasy here, just people, choices, and a quietly terrifying antagonist who unravels everyone he touches.
