His friend Anthony and his ex-wife Mathilde ask private investigator Byron Ashworth to discover the truth - but Blue Velvet and its go-between Amadeus have secreted a web which reveals itself as a fatal trap for the characters of the story.

Emerging from the mist of the past, six characters meet in the ethereal town of Bronze Bell Sorrow, the city of last chance. Only one of them is a living human being; the five others hide diverse identities. Anamorphic time and space are the stage on which they confront each other and themselves. Murderers, executioners, victims...who are they really? Behind the crimes they have committed are simply lost creatures wishing desperately to be members of humanity, even for the short time of a card game.
