PUBERTY IS ENOUGH OF A PAIN WHEN YOU DON'T GROW WINGS.
The feathered wings on Piralel's back mark her out as a nephilim. Her father is human, albeit one who has lived an unusually long life, but her mother is an archangel.
She has grown used to the stares that her unusual appearance brings, but not everyone paying her attention is content just to stare.
When Piralael is kidnapped, her family and friends face a race against time to find out who is behind it, and to get her back.
But there are others also racing to free the nephilim, for very different reasons. And all of them must contend with the murderous fanatics in red cloaks.
