A nun without a heart, a dissected unknown person, a murdered tailor. Workers are renovating the Dominican Church's walls when the wall collapses. Through the gaping hole, an ancient staircase leads to a chamber of secrets. The local priest and curators dare to descend into the long-forgotten crypt, where 264 dusty and cobwebbed coffins lie hidden in the depths.

How could the bodies have survived so intact? Who were they? What did they die of?
