Back in Rome after their dramatic adventures in Venice, Nic Costa, Gianni Peroni and Leo Falcone are rebuilding their lives. But they team up once again when faced with the sudden appearance of fresh bloodstains on a missing young boy's T-shirt... found in a small museum exhibit displaying supposed evidence of communication from souls in Purgatory.
Soon they find themselves embroiled in a mystery involving both the ancient cult of Mithras and a sinister ossuary, the House of Bones...
