Former private detective Kane became the "Spokesman for the Dead" after his sister was swindled out of her entire inheritance by their own uncle Martin, and died consumed by grief and resentment. He takes on only cases where the deceased prepared notarized evidence before death, reads their last words at the funeral on their behalf, and publicly tears off the masks of the hypocrites. Silicone dolls buried together, a fake-ashes scandal, private hard drives destroyed in court… Sixty funerals, sixty secrets that could not be spoken. And as Kane goes further and further, he discovers that he himself has long been written into a carefully laid five-year "hunting plan" by Martin.
Kane once watched helplessly as his own uncle Martin coaxed his seriously ill sister Emma into signing documents, swallowing up all her property and savings. Emma died consumed by grief and resentment, and at her funeral Martin played the loving relative, and no one dared to expose him. The immense powerlessness and rage drove Kane to create a special profession—"Spokesman for the Dead": he takes on only cases where the deceased prepared notarized agreements and audio-video evidence before death, speaking for the dead at their funerals and exposing the secrets beneath the respectable surface.
