Teenaged Sabino is rebellious, full of life, and fond of rap music- all normal traits in a word that's far from normal. In Italy' s cities, reawakened Saints of the Christian tradition roam as superheroes in the fight against evil. The pontiff, a mysterious young man at the head of a new religion, brought them back to life. Under his guidance, the Saints freed the world from the threat of Luciferals, diabolical and bloodthirsty creatures.

But the pontiff may have ulterior motives- something Sabino only discovers by being on the wrong side of the new church's operatives. When Sabino finds a holy relic, he's arrested and condemned, only to be rescued by the Martyrs, superpowered members of a secret society fighting to save humanity from something worse than the Luciferals. The apocalypse may be coming, and Sabino is now right in the middle of the fight to save the world.
