Set in the urban streets of Cagayan de Oro City, Philippines:

Sabrina told Bart not to do it, but he had. Now Bart is missing. And there's a corpse in his apartment. Sabrina has no other choice but to solve all the clues he left behind, without getting arrested for trespassing, while keeping her OCD under control.

Newly minted NBI Special Investigator Lyla Dixon doesn't expect to meet her old flame, now private investigator, Hans Blanco at the crime scene. But when the crime reveals more questions than answers, they both have to put aside old hurts and work with someone they're not even sure they should trust, the enigmatic Sabrina Eugenio, if they're to have a shot at finding a killer they never thought they'd ever encounter.
