Summary

From the publisher:

Mulder is teamed up with fledgling agent Adrian Stone to investigate a series of bizarre and gruesome murders in Chicago's gay community, while Scully tries to unlock the mystery through exhaustive forensics work. They soon uncover an unfettered truth so horrifying that failing to control it could change life as it is known today. Add to this the fact that A.D. Skinner seems to have a personal agenda, and you've got a tangled situation fraught with the gravest dangers both physical and spiritual.

Assigned to investigate a series of gruesome serial murders, Fox Mulder goes undercover with fledgling agent Adrian Stone in Chicago's gay community in an attempt to flush out the killer. Scully covers forensics in an attempt to find any possible leads. Together, the teams comes face to face with an unfettered threat that has only one goal. [2]
