In 1896 Paris, a series of gruesome murders sparks terror and uncertainty, as the city's residents wonder if the killer is a human or a supernatural force.

In 1896 Paris, author Charles Regnier returns home after exotic travels, having written a bestselling novel that the Ministry of Justice wants to ban. That same night, a Ministry official is brutally murdered, with claw marks covering his body.

As the investigation unfolds, Regnier begins to question his own sanity after experiencing a second hallucinatory blackout during the second killing.
