"Some alleys you walk through. Some never let you leave."
In 1947 Newbridge, Private Investigator Johnny Steele thought he'd seen it all—until a woman walked into his office claiming her husband vanished in an alley that doesn't exist. What begins as a missing person case quickly spirals into something far stranger: a conspiracy buried in the city's architecture, mirrors that remember what you forget, and a secret society that edits reality like pages from a book.
As Johnny dives deeper, joined by the enigmatic Vivian Vale and pursued by memory brokers and ghost-faced men, he discovers Crimson Alley isn't just a place—it's a loop, a wound, a story being rewritten by something that feeds on loss.
To solve the case, Johnny must confront forgotten lives, fractured timelines, and the one mystery he swore never to revisit: his own past.
A noir-drenched detective tale with cosmic horror undertones, vintage grit, and metaphysical intrigue, Johnny Steele and the Case of the Crimson Alley is the first entry in a mind-bending mystery series where memory itself is the crime scene.
