The story focuses on Lee (also known as the Fallen Angel) who is arguably a superheroine
residing in the city of Bete Noire. The city is completely riddled with
corruption, and supernatural characters who emerge at night, and is
managed by the Magistrate, who answers to a mysterious organization. Lee
is possibly the only force for justice in the city.

The city of Bete Noire is as much a character as a setting. It has been revealed to be the Biblical city of Enoch. During the day the city has no crime at all,but at night it is a haven for crime and corruption. Known as "the city
that shapes the world", some say that the events that happen in the
city influence major global events. Bete Noire is often said to possess a sentience of its own; the city decides who enters and leaves. When entering and exiting Bete Noire, Lee experiences the city as simply appearing or vanishing around a deserted road. Time passes differently in Bete Noire than it does outside of it.
People born and raised in the city appear to age normally, but outsiders
who come to live in it either age more slowly or experience a total
cessation of aging.

Bete Noire is run by an organization known as The Hierarchy. Lee has said that even God
has no dominion over Bete Noire; it is run exclusively by The
Hierarchy. The Hierarchy, in turn, typically exerts its will through the
city's Magistrate. The Magistrate, a direct descendant of Cain,  manages the city. The position of Magistrate is passed from firstborn
son to firstborn son by means of a mystical ritual performed on or after
the son's eighteenth birthday.The Magistrate constantly hears the voices of the city and is plagued
by visions. This perception causes the Magistrate excruciating pain,and he must learn to tolerate and ignore it. All Magistrates bear the mark of Cain,  which renders them effectively immortal and impervious to harm.
Magistrates are even able to mentally control the actions of those
trying to do them harm. However, it appears that both former Magistrates and agents of the Hierarchy  are able to hurt, and possibly even kill, a Magistrate. After passing
the duties of Magistrate on to his firstborn son, Dr. Juris attempted to
leave the city and experienced a fatal aging effect after he crossed
the city limits. During his tenure, a Magistrate is granted one "day off" per year, during which he is permitted to leave the city.[23]
