Silent Fingerprints

In the Republic of Veridia, historian Professor Adrian Hale uncovers classified documents in a state archive proving the ruling regime was founded on a brutal 1982 massacre. When he dies days later from a supposedly routine medical error at Havenwood General Hospital — mirroring a notorious corporate negligence case — a coroner's investigator begins to suspect that every doctor, archivist, and security official who stayed silent left a distinct fingerprint on the murder weapon.
