Paul Callan was once an investigator of modern miracles for the Catholic Church. However, after he kept finding mundane explanations for supposedly supernatural phenomena, he began having a crisis of faith. He ends up leaving the church when he experiences a true, supernatural miracle that saves his life...and it gets dismissed due to lack of evidence. Alva Keel comes in and recruits Callan to his Sodalitas Quaerito (Latin for "Brotherhood in Search of Truth") organization. This organization specializes in investigating and cataloguing "unexplainable" phenomena. Joined by their colleague and former police officer Evelyn Santos (Marisa Ramirez), they are trying to stop impending "darkness" before it's too late.
