The game of the soul

New York, 2011. A fifteen-year-old girl is found crucified in a church in the city's suburbs. Miren Triggs, an investigative reporter for the Manhattan Press, unexpectedly receives a mysterious envelope. Inside, there is a photograph of another bound and gagged teenager, with a single caption: "Gina Pebbles, 2002". Miren Triggs and Jim Schmoer, her former journalism professor, follow the trail of the girl in the photograph while investigating the crucifixion in New York, and soon find themselves drawn into the depths of a religious institution with strange rituals and an undecipherable enigma in which they must answer three questions: what happened to Gina? Who sent the photograph? And, most importantly, are the two cases related? What they don't know is that if they enter this dangerous game and reveal the dark secret it hides, everything will change.
