In this book, we meet Thomas “Veck” DelVecchio, a police
detective, who has struggled his entire life with issues surrounding his identity. Veck is
the son of a serial killer, and when those around him begin to question his
stability, we are privy to the undercurrents that are influencing his thoughts,
behavior, and actions. And although the fallen angel, Jim Heron, has Veck in
his sights, he ruminates over the murder of a young girl—a picture he cannot
seem to get out of his mind.
Will the intoxicated, motorcycle riding, sex indulging fallen angels be able to keep Jim on track? He isn't particularly fond of his new role. But all hope is not lost… yet.

I wasn’t as enthralled with this story. Still, it had its
moments, and as the series develops we’re getting a better understanding of Jim
and the other angels on Earth. I enjoyed the brief moments with the angels in
charge—their world is described so vividly, that I would love a series just
about them! Overall, a good read!
