"She just looked up at the angel and smiled. Maybe she thought it was going to take her to heaven to meet God...."
On a storm-swept Hawaiian night, four-year-old Malia Rico witnesses the savage murder of her parents--butchered in their bed, according to the terrified child, by an angel with a flaming sword.
Twenty years later, journalist Malia Rico returns to her native Hawaii--and the site of the nightmare that still torments her. She finds herself drawn into the menacing secret life of a charismatic hero who is not what he seems...captivated by a mysterious man from her distant past...and, in the wake of another savage murder, plunged back into a terrifying game of cat and mouse with the thing that killed her parents, and now wants her....
"A UNIQUE, INTELLIGENT SUSPENSE NOVEL. The characters are so well drawn that they pop out of the pages and grab you by the throat, refusing to let go until the last page."
