Editor's Note
There is war in heaven when Archangel Gabriel leads a revolt to unseat the usurpers of God's chosen: mankind. But when a homicide investigation takes a turn for the Biblical, a cop and a school teacher learn that they are not just dealing with a string of mysteriously mutilated bodies, but with saving the Earth from becoming a suburb of Hell.
Plot Summary
When some angry angels, including Gabriel, become jealous of God's love and affection for humans, they decide to band together and declare war on mankind. But first they must defeat the good angels, who vehemently oppose the plan. To accomplish this, the evil ones choose as their leader a war veteran who has just died. But to thwart their belligerent counterparts, the peace-loving cherubs grab the soldier's soul, and conceal it in the body of a young girl.| Will this tactic successfully derail the "bad" angels' anarchic agenda -- and save humanity in the process?
