BLURB
When teens go missing in Hawaii,
a group of demon-hunters—half human and half angel—disguised as high school
students, must leave Crossroads, the place where they reside. In a race against
time, they uncover the mystery connecting the missing teens, which dates back
to the era of the Knights Templar. However, when they discover one of the
Templars passed down a book containing all the secrets and codes to finding a
particular treasure, they soon realize this forbidden treasure needs to be
found before Cyrus, the lord of the possessor demons, acquires it—a treasure
which been safeguarded and hidden from him.
There is only one problem: the
pages containing the clues leading to the treasure is missing. When the first
page is found, Cyrus threatens to kill more descendants of the Knights Templar
if it is not given to him by Friday the thirteenth. In the midst of threats and
discovery, the demon-hunting angels find they are not alone when supernatural
beings begin to reveal themselves. Can they put their differences aside and
work together to solve the Knights Templars’ cipher? As they astral travel to
the past, they witness a lot more than they have bargained for. And some things
are better left unseen.

EXCERPT:
Eli
willed his sword away. It disappeared behind his back, just the way I would
have done it. “You know nothing. Nothing about me is human. I won’t be a part
of something that could kill any one of you.”
“How
could it kill us if—?” Then I had a thought, recalling the first time I’d seen
him in the cafeteria. I had no evidence but it was worth the shot. “You can
astral travel, can’t you? You’ve done it before, when you first saw me in the
cafeteria. You can travel in the present too. That’s why you took off.”
“I
have no idea what you’re talking about. Do you even know what that is?” His jaw
clenched.
I
knew he was lying. “Out-of-body experience.” I followed behind him when he
started walking away.
“You
have no idea of the consequences when you travel. Astral travel.”
“Then
let it be my consequence.”
Eli
whipped around. His face was just a breath away from mine. “You have no idea
what you’re talking about.”
“Then
show me.”
Eli
pierced his eyes into mine. His heart drummed a mile a minute. “You want to feel
pain, Lucia? You want to know what happens to people when they astral travel?”
“I-I—”
I didn’t know what to say. I certainly didn’t expect him to say the things he
did.
Eli
extended his arm to me. “Take my hand.”
“No.”
“Take
my hand, Lucia.” His tone was stern.
I
shook my head.
“Last
warning.”
“Last
warning for—ELI.” I screamed. My stomach dropped, along with my body. Eli’s
arms embraced me as we plunged through multiple layers of clouds with my back
facing down. Hair whipped my face and the force of gravity made me dizzy.
“You
didn’t heed my warning, Lucia,” Eli grumbled.
“So
you’re trying to kill me?” The normal reaction for someone in this situation
would be to fight back, but my instincts told me I wasn’t in danger. “What are
you doing?” The clouds got smaller as we plummeted faster by the second. I
began to have second thoughts. Wanting to believe so badly I could get through
to him, I’d let it possibly cost my life.
He
ignored my plea. Looking squarely in my eyes as air rushed against us, he said
nonchalantly, “Get ready to die.”
