If you haven't notice, I will faithfully read anything by Tillie Cole. She is a auto-buy author for me. When I heard she had a new series coming out, I was ecstatic. I finally made time for pick up this short novella about the seven fallen boys. Unfortunately, it wasn't exactly what I was expecting.
We follow Joseph's POV about how him and his brother, James, are in a orphanage that is ran by a bunch of priests. His brother has always been very detached and obsessed with blood. Joseph stops him from killing another boy which leads to James being put in something like solitary.
After months of not seeing his brother, Joseph is determined to find him. He starts asking questions and learns that there is something odd going on at Holy Innocents. He sacrifices himself to save his brother and ends up in alongside James - and five other boys - in a small room.
Their identities have been changed by the priests, or the Brethren, to the seven archangels as they have fallen from God's grace. Joseph is now Gabriel and James is Micheal. They now share a room with Diel, Raphael, Bara, Uriel, and Sela.
Gabriel is now surrounded by evil boys that long to kill. Unfortunately, there is a greater evil than the boys he now calls his brothers. He is determined to bring down the Brethren and save them all. And Gabriel isn't going to stop until they are free.
This book sets the stage for the upcoming series where each man finds his love. I can't wait to see how this series unfolds!
