As more victims are discovered¸ Bone and Stark are drawn deeper into a world where pain and personal statement blend and blur¸ and finally end up hunting for a semi-mythical man-machine named Burneo deep within the sewers. But things aren't what they seem. While searching for Burneo¸ Bone and Stark discover a hidden lab full of evidence of horrific abuses of science and experimentation. Meanwhile¸ the killer is still on the loose¸ and¸ as Stark becomes more and more obsessed with the case¸ Bone is forced to a shattering realization. Everything is connected: the killings¸ the gang activity¸ the labs¸ and his own past. Unless he can figure out how¸ he won't survive.
