Beneath Malta lies a secret older than civilization—one that could rewrite history. For Ceti, a sharp-witted orphan drifting through life, a routine delivery plunges him into a hidden world of ancient relics and dark conspiracies.
Shadowed by unseen enemies, Ceti’s journey sweeps him from the neon chaos of Paceville to the depths of Malta’s catacombs, where whispers of a forgotten power pulse through the underground. As he uncovers a secret stretching across the island, Ceti learns that his own past is deeply entwined with mysteries hidden for millennia.
But he’s not the only one seeking the truth. Ruthless forces are on the hunt, and as Ceti races to stay ahead, he must confront the question: Will he risk everything to unlock Malta’s darkest secret?
