The Shield

Travel back in time to 1965, to the tropical capital of the Philippines, Manila. Protagonist Jessica Hernandez runs the busy student newspaper, The Shield.



A local detective case pulls her away from her duties, and a scholarly stranger becomes a new friend. The Shield is a fictional story set in a historical past. A tale of time gone by, culture, and people.



It is a charming retrospective told through the lens of an empowered female lead character.
