Devil's Playground by arnesonmark

"Saint Michael the Archangel, defend me in battle, be my defense against the wickedness and snares of the devil...," Congressman Crown's twin girls are missing. The only clue as to their whereabouts is a gruesome one--two severed fingers, glued to an alarm pad. Any hope of finding them seems to lie at the feet of an inexperienced FBI agent named Cartwright. A trail takes investigators to the underbelly of a cruel and heartless world where lives are bought and sold for the carnal pleasures of a discreet collection of sadistic and satanic followers. Archangel is a man many believe dead. He possesses a set of unique skills to confront and eliminate the most vile and malicious in society. His path works outside the constraints of standard law enforcement, but is it enough to stop this ritualistic sacrifice?

"I spent my last life wanting to die, and now that I've decided to survive, this world is after me?" No. I won't die such a pathetic death. I will survive this time. No matter what. But first, I need to survive these main leads. One won't leave me alone; the other keeps fighting with me; another is destined to kill me... Even my superpowers are so weak! Surviving in a world that hates me... Is kinda difficult. *** I got tired of reading about 'special' and 'pure-hearted' heroines so I decided to write about a character I could relate to. Writing gets better after first few chapters. [#1 Angst] [#1 Obsession] [#2 Yandere] [#1 Villain] [#1 Antagonist] [#1 Superpowers]
