Phosphor's Verdict

In the rain-bleached city of Verdenhurst, disgraced mathematician Dr. Elias Croft orchestrates a series of "experimental killings" to prove that logic can outsmart the chaos of human suffering. When he targets a claimant wrongly denied disability benefits—a case he once adjudicated as a medical consultant—his perfect equation collides with the gritty appeals process of the Federal Benefit Tribunal. As a tenacious hearing officer and a desperate widow circle closer, Croft discovers that the system he mocked is not blind justice but a blunt instrument of power, and his own conscience becomes the final, unforgiving judge.
