"But, obviously, we don't always get what we want." For a moment, the archangel stared down at Sasha.
"No, we don't, do we?" Sasha looked away, and Raphael's expression shuttered again as he smiled wanly. "Shall we bargain for your life then, angel?"
Cheshire Wilkes's first mistake is risking his cover to go clubbing. His second mistake is meeting Sasha St. John. Sasha's beautiful, adversarial, and the kind of girl who reads classic literature at posh nightclubs. She's also the worst kind of trouble. The police raid may not be her fault but the angry demon and squad of homicidal angels definitely is. Because Sasha's not just enigmatic, she's a wanted assassin. She saves him from being exposed as a shape-shifting Navajo demon but her methods send them into the jaws of the police.
Then Europe's archangel arrives.
Accused of assassinating the archangel Gabriel, Sasha receives an ultimatum: find the person who masterminded the plot in seventy-two hours or forfeit her life to the archangels. Cheshire, rookie Interpol agent, has blown his opportunity to infiltrate an anti-magic terror cell and is subsequently ordered by agency and archangel to assist Sasha or face termination...and his mother's wrath.
A straightforward investigation of a coup rapidly unravels into a conspiracy that threatens the lives of every supernatural in London. With traitorous angels, a missing celestial weapon, and a suspect that legally doesn't exist, playing by the rules could get them killed. Sasha and Cheshire have their own secrets to protect, and the consequences of solving Gabriel's assassination might be more dangerous than failure.
