Summary

A distressing dream that inexorably turns into reality. The power of Caravaggio's genius merges with the great and arcane power of Magic, generating a nightmare that transcends the boundaries of Reason and Faith. A cunning and unpredictable serial killer who uses art as a tool to lure his victims into a realm where love and passion, cruelty and tenderness, seem to violently blur their boundaries. An astonishing reality where each individual is both spectator and protagonist. A prolonged terror in which Law and Justice will only clash after a harrowing final scream.

    There is something about the number 3.    
     
    The Ancient Greeks believed 3 was the perfect number, and in China 3 has always been a lucky number, and they know a thing or two.   
     
    Most religions also have 3 this and 3 that and, of course, in these more modern times, three’s a crowd may be too many, except when it’s a ménage à trois.  It seems good things usually come in threes. 
     
    Whatever history and culture says WE think 3, a hat-trick of stories, is a great number to explore themes and literary avenues that classic authors were so adept at creating.

    I’m Grim. 
    Yeah, that’s right. Grim, like Grim Reaper. 
    I command the souls of the dead. 
    Darkness is my home, my kingdom. 
    I don’t need light. 
    Or love. 
    Until the day she enters my existence. 
    A female human. 
    Mortal. Unshakable. Unafraid. 
    With a spirit that refuses to bow, even to me. 
    She pleads: Spare me. 
    And I could. 
    But everything has its price, even death. 
    She shall live, under one condition. 
    In exchange for her life, I get her.
