What it is
From New York Times bestselling author, T. Kingfisher, comes a charming murder mystery about a retired devil and retired angel who must team up to catch a killer stalking their small town—before all hell breaks loose.
When the murder of a priest rocks a quiet small town in North Carolina, the prime suspect is who else but the local retired agent of hell, Nicholas Fallen.
But Fallen long ago traded his pitchfork for gardening shears and smites only the beetles who try to feast on his carefully cultivated tomato plants.
If the reformed devil is to clear his (relatively) good name, he’ll have to pick up the mantle of detective, and partner with the last person he’d choose: retired angel Serafina Fuller.
As more bodies turn up and their peaceful retirement starts to go up in flames, the two will stop this killer. Come hell or high water.
