Details: A cursed young painter, a murdered art critic, a gloomy and gloomy London of the early twentieth century. Reilly is a young artist in search of success and fame: not yet blessed with luck, he lives in a miserable attic in the company of his faithful dog Nimrod, surrounded by unsold paintings and incomplete canvases. One evening of pouring rain, the most powerful critic in all of London knocks on his door, fascinated by his talent. It may be the breakthrough he's been waiting for, but just the next day the critic is found murdered in a canal, his eyes horribly gouged out. And in the investigation, nailed by a strange clue, Reilly himself is involved... After almost a century, in an old London gallery, a girl named Samantha comes across a painting by Reilly and is immediately kidnapped. He decides to find out more about who painted it and starts digging through dusty archives, old newspaper clippings and stories of people who knew the painter, until he comes across the murder that happened many years earlier and still shrouded in fog. Who killed the art critic? Who framed Reilly and for what cruel purpose? What mystery is hidden behind that cursed picture? Step by step, Samantha will find herself revealing the details of a deadly plot, made up of hatred and a desire for revenge.
