You must get lonely, sometimes, Wright had said. I wouldn’t blame you if you… went looking for company.
There comes a time in every man’s life when the state of being resolutely unattached transforms from a badge of honour into a mark of shame.
Chief Prosecutor Miles Edgeworth has long been the subject of interest and scrutiny over the years from fellow attorneys and the general public alike, especially for his resolute independence. When Edgeworth becomes the victim in a stabbing incident in the city’s red light district, he is forced to reckon with his own loneliness and think about how he should be spending his future – and with whom he plans to spend it.
Takes place in the mid 2040s, when Miles and Phoenix would be in their fifties. Also includes a little background mystery for all you sleuths out there.
