PIGS is an examination of the all-pervasive power of absolute evil to poison the lives of even the most innocent. Since his wife left him, James Hardman has lived in a brothel in Santo Domingo, the Dominican Republic. He has been a successful author of detective stories, but his agent asks him to write a screenplay of a serial killer. Hardman is obsessed with the crazy rantings of the killer and when he becomes involved with the Dominican Mafia, it seems a logical progression. What follows is one man's fight against mediocrity and evil, armed only with the hope that love survives and conquers all.

A dead body is found on a deserted road, the body has been cut into small pieces and abandoned in a suitcase; it has been so badly mutilated that it is unrecognisable. The police believe that the victim could be a junkie or a whore since nobody has bothered to report her missing. They visit the local convent where the nuns are known to have been working with the prostitutes. As the investigation develops, we witness a struggle for power in the convent. Father Moses is sent to investigate the disappearance of one of the nuns and as he unravels the tangled relationships within the convent he begins a journey of self-discovery which ends when he has to decide whether he is to be Jesus or Judas.
