The thirteenth apostle

In a remote village, Rachele, a young girl, returns after ten years, identical to the day she disappeared. Time seems to have stood still for her, but her presence, far from being miraculous, is accompanied by a series of mysterious deaths. Gabriel investigates the secret surrounding her return. The death of Marshal Marini and the return of Muster, who spurs Gabriel to delve deeper into the nature of his gift, lead Gabriel to the agonizing decision to return to the villa where he spent his childhood and where his mother lost her life. Gabriel asks Claudia to accompany him on this difficult journey.

Waking up in Gabriel's parents' villa is filled with disturbing memories. Gabriel is certain he saw his father's ghost and is convinced he died differently than his uncle had always told him. However, his thoughts also converge on the kiss he and Claudia shared that same night. Rosa, a forty-year-old woman confined to a wheelchair due to a spinal cord injury, inexplicably walks again. Yet, behind the apparent miraculousness of the phenomenon, disturbing implications loom. Gabriel will be forced to ask himself the same questions regarding his own gift.

The photos taken by Pietro reach the Directorate and compromise Gabriel's appointment, so much so that they manage to have him removed from the Congregation's new investigations, which are entrusted to Father Isaia. Gabriel, far from Claudia and the Congregation, is free to delve deeper, even into his own feelings. The case Gabriel investigates underscores the fact that the past must always be confronted, not erased: in an elegant Roman home, a woman senses the presence of a ghost haunting her, one she can't name. But what terrifies and unsettles doesn't always come to destroy.

Arriving in time to save Claudia, Pietro will pay the ultimate price for his heroic deed. Blinded by grief, Gabriel realizes that there can only be one person behind Claudia's attack, the only one to whom he had confided where they were going: Isaiah. While Demetrio delivers Isaiah to the Candelaio, Serventi mercilessly interrogates Alessandro Foschi, aiming to discover where he has hidden the anti-gospel that would allow Gabriel to anticipate his moves. Foschi, however, wants Gabriel to know everything, so he can finally choose who he is, and so decides to remain silent.

The pictures taken by Pietro reach the Directory and compromise the appointment of Gabriel enough to be able to oust him from the new investigations of the Congregation.

With the help of Alonzo, Gabriel continues to investigate the secret society, of which Serventi is the head, and goes back to 'Candelaio', theatrical work of the heretic Giordano Bruno.
