Summary | Someone has murdered the archangel Gabriel, and his Jericho trumpet, an artifact with the power to create or destroy worlds, is missing, leaving heaven in chaos. The semifallen angel Bayliss, whose outlook on the world is patterned on his favorite literary character, Raymond Chandler's noir detective, Philip Marlowe, chooses a human to replace Gabriel and restore the balance of heaven, but his plans go awry, and a young woman dies, becoming a reluctant and, therefore, dangerous addition to the forces of heaven. |
