That same night, however, one of the abbey's priests is found horribly dead, and shortly after a new apparent miracle occurs.
The miracle of the stone's tears is easily explained, but new murders taunt San Rosario. Joseph and Roberto think that part of the answers could lie in the abbey's ancient history, but the other priests' hostility doesn't allow them to investigate further.
Dark secrets emerge from the past while Joseph and Roberto keep on investigating about the chain of deaths in San Rosario. Meanwhile, a supposed demonic possession proves to be something much more terrible, under which the two Vatican priests start understanding the true nature of San Rosario.
Joseph and Nicholas have finally discovered the truth about the supposed Immacolate Conception, which lies in the final days of the World War II, when from the asces of a dying Third Reich someone was already spreading the seeds for the birth of a Fourth one.

Joseph and Roberto travel toward Central Africa to investigate a case of incorruptible body of a longtime dead clairvoyant, father John Jones. First analysis seem proving the miracle, as much as the true gift of the deceased priest. However, while Joseph is fascinated from the holy spirit of the church's main priest Julia, Roberto at the opposite sees in Jones' last prophecy a dark fate waiting for him.
Roberto's desperate resarch to explain the miracle, and so avoid the propecy about his imminent death, will reach the point that his own soul, more than his life, will be put at risk.
Despite Roberto's salvation, the miracles around John Jones' prophecies and incorruptible body seem above any doubt. However, the truth lies right in Roberto's childhood, and what seemed to be the most holy spirit will prove being something completely different.
