When five strangers become trapped in Mont-Saint-Michel, they discover a haunting reality: they are the fallen Archangels tasked with defending a magical world, aided only by old journals and weapons. A practical pastry shop owner. A polished semi-model. A reckless troublemaker. A quiet intellectual. A fiery outcast. Gabrielle, Rafael, Uri, Mike, and Luci are more than strangers-they're the modern-day incarnations of Gabriel, Raphael, Uriel, Michael, and Lucifer. The world needs them... but to become the world's saviors, they'll need to trust each other first. Inside the abbey's shadowed halls, secrets lurk. The rules of the world as they knew it begin to unravel startlingly quickly. And trust? It's a luxury they can't afford. In this captivating journey, the group must learn to rely on one another, forging bonds that will either empower each other or lead to their downfall. As they delve deeper into the magical world, they encounter powerful figures who challenge their resolve and test their newfound skills. The pressure mounts with every painful lesson; not only are their lives on the line, but the very fate of humanity as well. Defending themselves means defending the world-and failure isn't an option. As alliances strain and loyalties are tested, they'll have to fight not only the enemies hunting them, but also their own doubts, pasts, and the fear that they were never meant to rise in the first place. Hearts pound with the promise of power, attraction, and responsibility, beckoning the question: Can these unlikely heroes rise to the occasion and protect what they hold dear... or will the burdens of their pasts and the weight of their responsibilities prove too much? Fans of found family, reluctant heroes, and modern fantasy with ancient roots will devour this fast-paced, twist-laced debut.
