Silas Reynolds is a detective whose dream is to become the most famous person in the world; he is undeniably talented yet unkind. Envy and ego slows his judgment, stopping him from becoming the greatest.
As a result, he's unexpectedly paired with Adrian Morrow, a junior investigator living a quiet and chill life. Adrian has no grand dreams — just enough to pay the rent. He's soft-spoken, kind-hearted, and naive. These qualities make Silas hate him.
Adrian manages to find the traces before Silas. That is where the real competition begins when they stumble upon a mysterious clock during the investigation, and everything changes.
