Now, at 23, her discovery of a 1943 letter from the famous philanthropist Abigail Rockefeller to the late mother superior of Saint Rose Convent plunges Evangeline into a secret history that stretches back a thousand years: an ancient conflict between the Society of Angelologists and the monstrously beautiful descendants of angels and humans.

It is 1483, and Sir Thomas Lemuel Hawke, a Cornish knight, is about to ride into battle.

Unity is strength, but the path of a hero is often traveled alone, especially when friends, comrades and allies have been lost. The weight of responsibility is overwhelming, and there is so much at stake that one might feel compelled to howl at the moon Geala.

Have we plunged the depths of this mega-spiritual wisdom, or has our understanding of them remained on the surface? Jesus spoke in code.
