New Orleans; our lady of perpetual sirens.

Hinanya is reeling from her friend's recent suicide. She decides to return to her childhood home of New Orleans for the first time since Hurricane Katrina. Though the girl may be able to relocate, she cannot quell her unspeakable thoughts of death.

That great curiosity envelops her into a deranged obsession. After she stumbles upon her dead friend's gun in a violent confrontation, she covets it. People begin a pursuit after her and she goads them, relishing in the stimulation. Knowing they could have what she seeks.

It takes her on a journey from becoming a graffiti artist in the city of glittering menace to searching for traces of an urban legend she heard about in her childhood. All roads leading a jarring conspiracy that Hinanya is prepared to kill... or to die for.
