内容简介：

这个男孩总是被贬到他的小村庄里去。他背上有个驼背，有着神秘的过去，喜欢和动物说话，经常受到镇上其他人的嘲笑——直到一个名叫Secondus的神秘朝圣者的到来。男孩的攀爬和跳跃能力给Secondus留下了深刻的印象，他让男孩做他的仆人，带着他穿越欧洲，去收集七件圣彼得的珍贵文物。男孩很快意识到这趟旅程并不单纯。他们在偷文物的过程中积累了危险的敌人。但是小男孩下定决心要坚持到底，因为如果圣彼得有能力让他成为和其他男孩一样的人呢?

Boy has always been relegated to the outskirts of his small village. With a hump on his back, a mysterious past, and a tendency to talk to animals, he is often mocked by others in his town--until the arrival of a shadowy pilgrim named Secondus. Impressed with Boy's climbing and jumping abilities, Secondus engages Boy as his servant, pulling him into an action-packed and suspenseful expedition across Europe to gather seven precious relics of Saint Peter.

Boy quickly realizes this journey is not an innocent one. They are stealing the relics and accumulating dangerous enemies in the process. But Boy is determined to see this pilgrimage through until the end--for what if St. Peter has the power to make him the same as the other boys?
