A grim serial-killer procedural that pairs graphic brutality with theological perversion, creating a dark meditation on faith and evil.

A jaded homicide detective has been put on the case of a ruthless killer in the city of Chicago, who leaves a trail of horribly mutilated and dismembered corpses along with perversely ironic biblical quotes.
