When petty thief Jubilee Li has a near-death experience, she awakens with the ability to see angels and demons. This, quite literally, scares the hell out of her. Deciding to change her ways, she gives up thieving and relocates to the other side of the world—Beijing, China—intending to live a quiet life under the radar. But when she sees a girl talking with a demon and decides to follow them both, she winds up on a mysterious murder case in which the stakes of life and death aren’t just for the wicked, but the righteous – though who can sort the two? – and for Jubilee herself.
