In the bustling streets of Ankh‑Morpork, Commander Sam Vimes of the City Watch is haunted by a decades‑old murder of a dwarf. As the Watch fractures and wartime tensions rise, Vimes must follow a trail of clues, outwit assassins, and confront a growing darkness to bring justice to the slain and protect his city. His personal life—including his nightly routine of reading to his young son—remains an anchoring counterpoint to the chaos he faces.
