I'm not sure specifically as I haven't read this particular online novel. It might be about different burial rites and cultures, perhaps exploring the significance, traditions, and the people involved in such rites within the context of a fictional story.

The first book in China to record the "rites" was the Rites of Zhou.

Since it's a paranormal romance novel, 'Dark Rites' might tell a story of two characters from different worlds. One could be a normal human and the other a creature of the night or a powerful being with paranormal abilities. The 'dark rites' could be a significant part of the plot, perhaps a ceremony that has the power to change their relationship, or it could be a threat to their love. It could also involve a struggle between good and evil in the context of this romantic relationship.

Equal rites in such novels mean that there's a certain balance. Characters, whether they are heroes or villains, have to play by the same rules when it comes to things like magic use or social interactions within the fantasy world. The comic aspect can be seen in the way the story is told. There could be humorous dialogues, comical misunderstandings between characters. For example, a wizard might misinterpret a spell and create a chaos that is both funny and a consequence of the equal - rite system. The fantasy part allows for the creation of extraordinary creatures and settings. These novels often have a moral undertone too, where the equal rites are also a way to teach about fairness and justice in a fictional and entertaining way.

In 'Last Rites A Crime Novel', there could be a jaded detective who has seen it all but still has a sense of justice. Maybe there's a mastermind criminal who is very elusive and hard to catch. And then there might be a key witness, perhaps a bystander who saw something crucial but is afraid to come forward at first. There could also be a family member of the victim who is determined to find out the truth no matter what.
