By the late 1300s, the plague that decimated Europe is finally abating, but not before it claims one more victim: Brother Wynken, an unassuming monk whose dark and sacred responsibility it is to safeguard the gates of Hell. Fortunately, the archangels grant the dying brother the means to pass his responsibility to an unsuspecting newborn. When repentant former soldier Thomas Neville, now joined in the Dominican order, finally matures and makes his way to Rome, the archangel Michael appears to him in a vision and formally passes the baton. Neville's obligations carry an extra burden, however; as Wynken lay dying, a tribe of cherubic demons slipped from his grasp and infiltrated normal human society. Neville's job, which tempts the mercenary element of his soul, is to round up those demons before they wreak havoc on Earth and launch an attack on Heaven. Captivatingly written, this first installment of a planned trilogy should win fans of fantasy and historical fiction alike.
