Back Cover: Cursed by God, hunted
by demons, desired by Cain and Abel... All in a day's work. For Evangeline
Hollis, a long-ago fling with a bad boy from the wrong side of the tracks just
became a disaster of biblical proportions. One night with a leather-clad man of
mystery has led to a divine punishment: the Mark of Cain. Thrust into a world
where sinners are drafted to kill demons, Eve knows her learning curve must be
short. A longtime agnostic, she begrudgingly maneuvers through a celestial
bureaucracy where she is a valuable but ill-treated pawn. She's also become the
latest point of contention in the oldest case of sibling rivalry in
history...But she'll worry about all that later. Right now she's more concerned
with learning to kill while staying alive. And saving the soul she'd never
quite believed she had.
The book is the first in a Marked series. Eve has an evening
with one guy and her world turns upside down. And having Alec Cain come back in
her life wasn’t something she ever expected. Now Eve has to go kill things that
go bump in the night so she can save her own soul. I found this to be a great
twist on the biblical tales, showing that even today good and evil are fighting
without the white gloves. I thought it was very imaginative storytelling. I
couldn’t put the book down once I started it. I look forward in reading the
next book in this series, Eve of Destruction.
