It is 1915 and the First World War has only just begun. 17 year old Sasha is a well-to-do, sheltered-English girl. Just as her brother Thomas longs to be a doctor, she wants to nurse, yet girls of her class don't do that kind of work. But as the war begins and the hospitals fill with young soldiers, she gets a chance to help. But working in the hospital confirms what Sasha has suspected--she can see when someone is going to die. Her premonitions show her the brutal horrors on the battlefields of the Somme, and the faces of the soldiers who will die. And one of them is her brother Thomas. Pretending to be a real nurse, Sasha goes behind the front lines searching for Thomas, risking her own life as she races to find him, and somehow prevent his death.

Warning: This book contains graphic language and graphic violence. This story is about the journey that would cause a hero to fall into darkness. This is what we have been taught by the Books of the Three Laws and that which has been passed down through the millennia... In the time before time, the builders broke the world with fire from the heavens, and the land shattered and changed. Upheaval rocked the land as people died in droves. It was during this time that St. Michael was granted his vision of the changing world and he began the creation of the First Temple and His Holy Army, May He Always Defend Us, which set forth the path for the salvation of all mankind. It is said that the power of the Aio came to protect us from the dark, a Gift from The One. Some say that the Aio had always been with us, all around us, guiding us like the hand of The One himself. St. Michael created the Triads, two Seraphs led by a Cherubim, to protect us and defend us against the Darkness. The Triads would learn together, train together, and venture out into the world together to pass along the word and faith of The One. They alone would have the power bestowed upon them by the Gift of Aio to stand against the oncoming darkness. St. Michael sent them himself to defend us, to guide us, and to bring all of his children into the light. Unless. of course, it has all been a lie...
