What this book is about
Elena Deveraux has woken from her transformation into an angel, but the process has left her far weaker than the archangel Raphael's enemies expect. As she rebuilds her strength in the Refuge — the hidden home of angels — she must navigate the lethal politics of the Cadre of Ten, including archangels who view her as a weakness to be exploited. Nalini Singh's second Guild Hunter novel delivers rich supernatural world-building, paranormal romance, and the series' signature dark angel mythology.
