Synopsis:
Ruby Rios survives a firefight and believes he is touched by God. He is determined to make things up to God, and gets himself into some extremely sticky situations, watched over by Firebrand, whose brother Javier is Ruby's priest. Rios somehow survives everything that is thrown (or more accurately, shot) at him, and helps bring down some weapons dealers and Russian mobsters. Firebrand can only conclude that Rios must indeed have been touched by God and given a very vigilant guardian angel.
