A decade before the story opens, two men referred to as the Patron and Guide are leaders of an influential religious movement. When they discover that a radical faction within their following is planning to seize a nuclear power plant, they dissolve the cult very publicly, on TV, in an act known as the Somersault.

Ten years later, Patron decides to restart the fragmented movement after the militants kidnap and murder Guide, and he moves the church headquarters in to remote mountainous country. There, with a small core of the faithful, Patron's messianic ambitions collide with his followers violent expectations.
