friend Vee Sky, she discovers that Patch is a fallen angel who fell from heaven due to lust. Originally
Patch is out to harm Nora, to sacrifice her because he believes if he does he will be able to feel. (Fallen
Angles can not physically feel anything.) At the end of the first book Patch's descendent and Nephilim
vassal, Jules aka Chauncey, tries to kill Nora as revenge against Patch. Nora sacrifices herself and Patch
was given two options: become an archangel and let Nora live, or become human and let Nora die. His
love for her was great enough to were he spared her life and became a fallen angel. Also in this book it is
revealed the Nora is a nephilim, a descendant of a fallen angel and human.

Marcie’s guardian angel and Rixon, Vee, and Nora head to Delphic Amustment Park. Scott appears with
a gun and Rixon rushes Nora to an underground tunnel to protect her. Nora hears her dad’s voice telling
her to touch his wing scars which transports her into a vision showing Rixon is the man who killed her
dad. She tries to escape and runs to Scott and tell him that he is immortal and can not die. Rixon shoots
him more than once and tries to sacrifice Nora but Patch comes in and saves her after she gets shot.
After Nora is released from the hospital she finds that Scott has run away because the police think he is

and she touches his wing scars and she sees a vision of Jev, Hank and a wingless Archangel. Scott comes
back into town and the two of them decide to investigate Hank’s warehouse. She later goes back alone
and Jev finds her. He takes her to a nightclub to escape the guards and they are discovered by the
guards and go to his safe house underneath Delphic. Here it is revealed that Jev is Patch. It is revealed
that Hank kidnapped his own daughter to use her against Patch so he would spy on the fallen angles for
him. At school Nora hears her mom got a concussion and on the way to the hospital with Hank they are
forced off the road and also had to go to the hospital. When she was released Scott needed help and
when she got there she was taken by Hank. He gives her two options, become a Nephilim or have her
and her mom die. She does not believe this and Hank explains that although he is her dad she is only
part Nephilim, not pure. While in the hospital after the car accident he gave her a full blood transfusion
making her into a pure blood Nephilim. With no choice Nora swears an oath and becomes immortal.
After this Nora runs to Patch and tells him about the oath, she goes into his memory and learns about
devilcraft. A form of magic originating from Hell. A deal was made with the Archangels and they had
until sunset to kill Hank, which normally can’t be done. They decide to let the archangels deal with him
and as they are leaving him Nora sees Hank trying to burn Patch’s last feather, which would send him to
hell. She kills him, saving Patch. She decides to tell her mom and Vee everything but at her house she
sees Scott and he tells her that with Hank dead she has to lead the Nephilim army Hank started because
he made Nora his heir. She doesn’t want to lead the army but because of the oath she has to or she will
die.

The story starts with a meeting, where we learn Nora needs to gain trust among those in the army. One
night Nora is approached by Pepper Fridberg, who turns out to be an archangel who wants to talk to
Patch. Someone is blackmailing him and he thinks it is Patch. On her way home one day she is taken by
three Nehpilim, who beat her up because they think she is unfit to lead and because of her relationship
with Patch. They plan a fake break up, and the day before Nora and Dante Matterazzi start Nora’s

difficult to get along with. After the break up Vee pressures Nora to tell her the truth, saying she has
secrets of her own, but Nora won’t say anything. The next time Nora and Dante train, he gives her a
drink, this drink is devilcraft, and it gives her new strength and powers. Also during training she learns
how to create illusions, invade minds(mind tricks), and even possess bodies for short amounts of time.
Pepper then uses Patch’s phone to text Nora and kidnaps her, wanting to talk to Patch again, but she
escapes. But we do learn that Blakely, the devilcraft developer is researching a weapon to kill nephilim.
Nora, Patch, and Marcie try to capture Blakely, but they fail and Nora is wounded by a knife enchanted
with devilcraft. And because it is enchanted the wound doesn’t heal instantly like it normally would.
