Young boys from the slums have been turning up dead in Payatas, the largest sanitary landfill in Metro Manila. Most of them have been gruesomely murdered and eviscerated in creepily consistent fashion. But because PoliceAreUseless and the government places little priority on solving urban crime (or indeed on anything other than filling its higher-ups' pockets), nobody seems to notice or care that this is possibly the work of a SerialKiller... until a pair of Jesuit priests, Gus Saenz and Jerome Lucero, are brought in on the case. Saenz, with his foreign training in forensic anthropology, and Lucero, with a background in clinical psychology, put their minds together to track down the suspect, all the while dodging {{Obstructive Bureaucrat}}s within the National Bureau of Investigation and helped along on the outside by IntrepidReporter Joanna Bonifacio.
