Step into the shoes of Edgar Shade, a down-on-his-luck private investigator who specializes in solving bizarre cases involving shadows. When a series of disappearances coincide with strange shadows wreaking havoc in the city, Edgar must navigate a web of deceit, laughably incompetent suspects, and his own existential dread.

Will he unravel the mystery behind these malevolent silhouettes, or will he too become a shadow of his former self?
