In the city of Manila, there’s a secret race to find hidden objects of power and magical ingredients:
A fallen star that can grant someone god-like powers
A sword that can trap spirits and deliver a fiery curse
A stone from a graveyard that can bring back the dead
A gun that never runs out of bullets, as long as the target is guilty of a crime.

In the past, these gifts were granted to deserving people who became agents of order. But lately, some of these weapons have been given to agents of chaos, who lurk in the shadows.

When the supernatural world begins to threaten our world, that’s when the city needs Alexandra Trese.
