In the city of Deepgate, suspended by chains over a seemingly bottemless abyss, there are two angels: one, an untested boy, the last of his line; the other, a psychotic murderer mad for revenge--or redemption. When one of the city's own turns against its people, bringing enemies to its doorstep, both seek a powerful magic at the bottom of the chasm--and learn that what lies below is mare more sinister than what they've been taught to expect.

Regina Giddens is a woman who will stop at nothing to outwit her brothers in running the family business, even if it means sacrificing the health of her husband or the love of her young daughter.
