This dark fantasy is about Daphne, the child of Lucifer and the demon Lilith, and her half-brother Obie. Obie is in love and is going to abandon his family, his job and his home in Hell for the girl he loves. When Lilith tells Daphne that Obie is in danger, Daphne sets off to rescue him. But she has little of the knowledge or skill necessary to navigate Earth and help her brother. She has nothing but her connection to a boy who might be the last one who saw Obie.
Daphne has always been sheltered. On this quest, she must learn self-reliance, perseverance, and most of all trust – who she can and can’t trust. She must navigate the politics of both Hell and the angels on Earth who are determine to destroy all demons. The reader can see the growing changes in Daphne through her first person chapters; the boy who is helping her appears more distant in his third person narrative. The motivation of characters is complex, as is the setting. This detailed story is intriguing and hard to put down.
