Publisher's Synopsis
IT'S A DIVISION BETWEEN LIGHT AND SHADOW...
No woman has shown the genetic code to control the earth element ibri for thousands of years, and the gods controlling the city fight to keep it that way through mandatory drugs that have corrupted the code and caused many to become sterile. In a single daring act, Elishah demonstrates her rare abilities and now must prove herself capable of her true purpose. And the stakes are higher than she ever could have imagined. Then the Malakim arrive with a terrible warning: The abomination of Babel is set for destruction. If Lebab's inhabitants cannot separate themselves from its tangled roots, they will go down with it... The Wings' already small numbers have dwindled even further. As they fight to protect mankind and hold onto their otherworldly beliefs in the midst of increasing opposition, the city continues its downward spiral into total chaos. Elishah struggles to believe in a God who has allowed her to lose so much. For Yehoshua, a divided mind is slowly poisoning his logic, his reason, and his will. Soon he fears he will become not only a liability, but a danger to his fellow Wings and to Elishah. She's already failed him once. To fail again will mean the end of one or both of them...
