Why this music
The tracks stay low and procedural — sparse, measured, with just enough unease in the undertow to mirror the book's forensic rhythm. Warmth appears only in flashes, the way Douglas finds it between cases. As the profiles deepen and the darkness accumulates, the music tightens around the silence rather than filling it.
