The City of Harlech is a new city, but the path of this city is up for decision with the 1984 municipal election. Both Emma Monique and Kaj Kejsaren are apathetic to the political election. Emma now runs a bustling private investigations company, and Kaj faces a disciplinary hearing for his past actions, but both are anxious for the future of the city nonetheless. They take out their anxieties as they separately investigate those in control of the city, hoping to learn who or what criminal organization aims to take control, or continue to control, the city in a position of absolute power and consolidate the criminal activities of the city for their own doing. To aid their efforts, they come to reflect on the past again, where a power struggle ensued fifteen years ago for control of the city, but now continues to struggle for control of the Greater Harlech region. This final battle for control pushes both Emma and Kaj to their limits, transforming each of them for better or for worse, as they action their own plans in opposition to the hostile powers that lurk.
Emma Monique, a private investigator, and Kaj Kejsaren, a police detective, have found themselves apart from each other in the last few months. Kaj is not himself and so Emma keeps an eye on him as he takes on a new assignment to investigate drug trafficking between the Yakuza and the Triad groups in the city. During her investigation, Emma comes across an old high school flame who now runs his own mercenary team and who she suspects to be involved in a scheme to pit the Yakuza and Triad who have been increasingly engaged in a gang war to annihilate the other from the city. The opposition between Emma and Kaj mirror the opposition the two experienced in a similar time fifteen years ago, where Kaj had become a member of the football team and was indicted into a scheme that the team had taken up to secure victory in the regional football tournament. Emma and Kaj face off against each other, looking to secure and defend those they love from those that threaten them.
In the aftermath of their most recent investigation, private investigator, Emma Monique, and police detective, Kaj Kejsaren, have found themselves in a different world than they had departed from. Kaj is promoted into Major Crimes, Abductions Unit, and investigates the disappearance of a 17-year-old female in the community, Ansley Wharton, while Emma is approached by a former schoolmate from high school, Cassandra Bates, who is now a famous actress, and encourages her to investigate a movie producer for his suspected sex crimes involving other actors and actresses. Each investigation leads the two to a different criminal syndicate, but also through difficult memories and experiences that take their toll but push each forward to deliver justice, although, in different forms, to avenge those that are now dead.
Emma Monique is a 30-year-old private investigator in Harlech, a metropolitan city in the Pacific Northwest, who runs her own business investigating small time cases. When Emma is met with a mysterious client who offers a substantial return for the recovery of computer data that was lost to a hacker, her efforts to return this data to her client has her run in to an old friend from high school, 30-year-old Kaj Kejsaren, a patrol officer with the Harlech Police Department, Jarsdel Division, who likewise has been on the hunt for answers to the mysterious circumstances of the death of a con artist. The con artist in question, both Emma and Kaj were familiar with from their teenage years when the two had likewise come together to solve two separate mysteries, a thief and a bunco con respectively, both of which tied to the same fairground that ran a larger scheme. Emma and Kaj must then decide whether the events in the past correlate to the present, and whether they should team up once more to solve the mystery and wider scam ahead.
A few months since private investigator, Emma Monique, and police officer, Kaj Kejsaren, had earned their prestige for their efforts that led to the dismantling of a major criminal organization in Harlech, they now return with a new assignment that involves the notorious Medici crime family. Emma is tasked to retrieve lost money in the hands of the nefarious mafia whereas Kaj is tasked to go undercover and expose the financial crimes of Medici Bank. Both investigators eventually come together again as their pains in this investigation become too familiar for them and they reflect on a similar situation fifteen years ago where together they had investigated rumors of a romantic affair. Just as the investigation fifteen years ago had its hardship on the duo, so too does the investigation fifteen years later, but not without lessons learned that could aid the two lest either of them lose their grace.
