You step off a modern tram into lantern-lit alleys and feel the river breathe — the Saône pushing its slow current alongside cobbled quays. Red Nights drops you into an October 1684 that hangs over Vieux Lyon like a rumor: disappearances, whispered warnings and a race to find your missing brother before time runs out.
