"Bentley Hellbourne is dead,"

Those words were echoed in the pages of history, celebrating the infamous demon's death at the hands of her angelic arch-nemesis. After eighty-five years of peace between Heaven and Hell, the world is finally getting used to its current state of balance. But when Bentley inexplicably comes crawling back from her grave to wreak havoc once again, the structure of the four realms instantly comes crashing down.

After reuniting with his formerly deceased rival, low-ranking angel Atticus pash de Ophaniel finds himself caught up in a wild tangle of adventures. From babysitting Lucifer himself, to discovering horrible truths about his own existence, Atticus is forced to acknowledge the trauma of his past. And in doing so, unearths memories of a long-lost friendship held between himself and the person he always thought he hated the most.

God's Gone AWOL

Breakfast was nearly over. The tower of pancakes had lost a considerable amount of its height. Atticus and Frances were standing by the sink, washing the dishes together in a team effort, the former scrubbing and the latter rinsing and drying. Hazel was still poking slowly at her food, her mind completely elsewhere as she stared into empty space. Bentley, who had now fully dressed herself, also sat at the table. Although she hadn't needed to eat anything, she was still enjoying the food for no reason other than to appreciate the trouble Atticus had gone through just to put the meal on the table. And Xander was out in the other room, talking to someone on the phone. 


"So once we're done washing up, should we hit the books?" Frances asked.
