Description
A crime thriller of the dark fantastic set in a supernatural Metro Manila during the 1990s.
Come along for a descent into a Manila in the claws of night and sinister folklore.
A crime thriller set in 1990s Metro Manila of the dark fantastic, Lenix and Elena are young misfits recruited to fight in the secret war against the cartel known as The Lords of Night, the organisation ruling the trade of the mysterious, highly addictive drug Fantoma.
On the team of the anarcho-shaman Conrad White Crow, they battle otherworldly creatures and monsters of folklore that control fantoma's manufacture and traffic. As their fates intertwine, Lenix and Elena discover how love can bloom in the shadow of ancient war and the high cost they must pay for the power to win against such formidable enemies.
