The City of God

For Maria, a young woman burdened by poverty and a yearning for a better life, the world of books offers a lifeline. Maria, a bookish and determined young woman from a poor Manila neighborhood, navigates the city's relentless thrum while seeking answers about a series of chilling disappearances – the elderly vanishing without a trace. Whispers of a secret society, cryptic notes, and escalating danger lead her down a treacherous path with unseen forces pulling the strings. Are the secret societies connected to the vanishing, and are they good or a bad force? As Maria inches closer to the truth, the greatest battle may not be against the city's unseen powers.
