When justice fails, RAGE begins.

Angel is not an ordinary teacher. She's a Watcher—a skilled tutor of reckoning—employed by Retaliation Against Guilty Exonerated, a clandestine order with saintly intentions for the wronged—and deadly repercussions for the wrongly acquitted. Angel thrives perilously within RAGE, where the legal and ethical lines separating right and wrong and innocence and guilt are erased—where the laws that govern the justice system are the enemies.

Upon RAGE's commission, Angel recruits Eve, a shattered victim of the flawed system, but as her education in taking revenge begins, so does Angel's trouble—in the form of Seattle PD's Renny Shepherd. When questioning Angel in connection with a murder in Savannah, the handsome but shrewd detective suspects she is not the innocent survivor she seems. Her mysterious allure drives Shepherd's investigation down the dark path of Angel's past, where exhuming the bones of violence, tragedy, and secrets could destroy his future, the order, and Angel's very soul . . .
