Paul is already involved with stopping an attempt on Matt Corbin's life, so much so, that he almost loses his own in the process, when his services are sought out by other friends, Brother Saul and Brother Simon from the ancient Brotherhood of the Philo. It seems that a recent neophyte to their order is missing. They know very little about the boy other than they like him and are worried about him and believe he lives on the streets. Paul naturally helps them while the city is being plagued by two serial rapist-killers. Paul starts digging and finds strings not only leading back to the two killers, but to their victims and to Matt Corbin, which in turn, reveals a bizarre, puzzled, utter unbelievable theory that could be true.
