Sériový vrahovia môžu mať všakovaké chúťky aj podoby. Tento je obzvlášť nevyspytateľný. Zohavené telá, ktoré sa zjavujú v exotickom prostredí púšte Nového Mexika, nespája navonok nijaká súvislosť. Navzdory existencii rozličných siekt či indiánskeho kmeňa v oblasti nič nenasvedčuje, že ide o násilenstvo alebo rituál. Všetky obete spája navonok iba jedno - zahynuli nevysvetliteľným spôsobom, prežívajúc v posledných okamihoch života neľudské utrpenie... Preto dvaja obľúbení agenti FBI, ktorí zasiahnu do života obyvateľov novomexického mestečka, usadlíkov na rančoch a indiánskej rezervácii v horách, opäť balansujú na hranici života a smrti...

There's no pattern to the mutilated bodies that have been showing up in Phoenix: both sexes, all races, ages, ethnic groups. There is no evidence of rape or ritual. Only one thing connects the victims. They were victims of a natural disaster. One of the most unnatural natural disasters imaginable, leading to a most painful, most certain, and most hideous death… Mulder and Scully, FBI The agency maverick and the female agent assigned to keep him in line. Their job: investigate the eerie unsolved mysteries the Bureau wants handled quietly, but quickly, before the public finds out what's really out there. And panics. The cases filed under "X."

En el primero deben investigar dos extrañas muertes en las que el asesino parece haber salido de la nada. El segundo les llevará al desierto de Nuevo México, donde varias personas han aparecido horriblemente desolladas.
