Synopsis

Homicide investigator William Dandeline comes across a gruesome find on his first days at the police station of New Orleans. What it looks like to be a fair scene in the dance hall of the 13th Iberville Street, is nothing but the macabre sculpture of a twisted artist. The dead bodies, paired in two and resembling intimate dancing moves, are kept still by fish strings sawn on their shoulder’s blades, while their formal attire and expressionless yet crystal clean faces bring goosebumps to the viewer’s body. The year is 1965 and in the city of New Orleans it is easy to find someone to blame, let alone a bloodthirsty criminal. However, finding the true culprit is the true challenge, one that will invite William into this grotesque world between life and death. His only help? A young heir of a long-forgotten bloodline; a hermit of the elite class who is willing to assist in putting an end to this terror..
