Manila is not for the faint of heart. Population: over ten million & growing by the minute. Climate: hot, humid & prone to torrential monsoon rains of biblical proportions. The ultimate femme fatale, she's complicated & mysterious, with a tainted, painful past. The perfect, torrid setting for noir.

Edited by Dogeaters (Penguin, 1991) author & National Book Award Nominee Jessica Hagedorn, & featuring original stories from a stunning group of multi-award-winning authors.
