The famous thousand have returned. The first time, they created Italy. Now, they must stop the other world.

Giuseppe Garibaldi. Pirate, general, revolutionary. He’s often referred to as "the hero of the two worlds". But no one knew the real reason. Until now.
In a secret diary, he confessed that his greatest battle wasn’t the civil war in Uruguay or the expedition to unify Italy, but a far more dangerous mission: protecting our world from the dark, sinister world of supernatural spirits. After discovering Garibaldi’s diary and sword, Anita founds a secret society: the 999. Because the spirits are back among us. And it’s up to Anita and her friends to stop them…

  • A historical character known and loved around the world… with a fantasy twist.

  • Heart-stopping adventures set in the most beautiful Italian cities.
