The Secret Emissary tells the story of a young Mexican from a wealthy family in Sonora, Mexico. Educated in Spain, Luis Esquerre Calella de Valderano is a skilled researcher and writer, and with a penchant for international relations and diplomacy, he becomes an unofficial Vatican liaison with an American diplomat during the 1919 Paris Peace Conference. A talented academic, accomplished musician, and agile sportsman—a friend to popes and aristocrats alike—Luis becomes a collaborator in underground activities against Fascists in Italy, Germany, and Spain. As a covert agent for the Jesuit Superior General and Popes Pius XI and XII and a secret liaison between the Vatican and Jesuit Curia and American military intelligence, Luis cuts a swath through history as he becomes a Monsignor, a Bishop, and after World War II, a Cardinal in the Roman Catholic Church.

Led to believe that unlocking its power was their only hope of ending a seemingly endless interplanetary race war, five girls with extraordinary powers accepted a mission to find the Zeal Orb. After two years, they have nearly reached their destination. Suddenly, however, they are ambushed, and twelve-year-old Jadeleve is separated from the group. Due to a hard blow to her head, Jadeleve cannot recall what happened to her or her comradesor even what her enemy looked like. After waking up alone in the middle of a jungle with no resources, she is forced to use all her skills in order to claw her way back to civilization, find her friends, and uncover their attackers true motives. With her physical abilities already tested to their limits, Jadeleve must rely on her mental reserves, not only to combat their elusive enemy, but to overcome an internal struggle. As she grows more doubtful that the Zeal Orb exists, and starts to wonder if her efforts to end the war are futile, Jadeleve has no choice but to consider the following implications: that she was deceived, and worse, that she is powerless.
