Web of Lucifer is a fictionalized story which takes place in the late 1400's and early 1500's in Italy during the time that Cesare Borgia, son of the Pope, was looking for a country to reign.

Young, impressionable Giacomo Orso of Picina is the guide through this tumultuous time in Italy's history. Witnessing his father's murder, Giacomo is determined to make more of his life than the farming and small town living that Picina affords. With tutoring from Fra Matteo, Giacomo learns to educate himself and what it will take to make it in the bigger world.

When his mother is struck ill, he travels to see Madonna Caterina Sforza, Countess of Forli and Imola. Once his mother's condition improves, Giacomo decides to leave Picina for what he believes will be a better life.

He finds a position with Messer Cobelli. At first sight, Giacomo falls hopelessly in love with Madonna Leonora. On a trip back to Picina, he decides to surprise his younger brother, Beppo. Instead, he finds Beppo dead. Giacomo's life is changed in an instant with the only goal now being revenge for his brother's death. He shoves his love for Leonora aside.

When Cesare Borgia and his forces promise to help Giacomo, not only find his brother's murderer, but to let him exact whatever revenge he believes is justified, Giacomo becomes a Borgia loyalist.

As events unravel, so does Giacomo's belief in his hero
