Flesh and Blood

Mae Bishop took a hammer to her marriage and became a national headline. Now, she's a fugitive on a highway through the dark heart of the Midwest, guided by the one person she never wanted to see again: the ghost of the man she killed. Wade isn't just haunting her for revenge—he's a supernatural navigator leading her straight into the path of predators far more depraved than he ever was.  But the law isn't the only force tracking her. A "e;neutral celestial faction"e; is looking for a contractor—someone with a history of violence and nothing left to lose. They offer Mae a "e;clean slate"e; in exchange for a baptism by blood, but the real hook is the one thing that could make her stop running: a chance to be reunited with the soul of the daughter Wade took from her with a single, brutal fist.  The rage inside Mae is a cold, living thing, fueled by years of abuse and the memory of a child she never got to hold. She's ready to be a blade for the divine, but in a world where angels act like CIA handlers and the dead give the orders, the price of redemption might be her own humanity.  Mae has already killed for her freedom. Now she has to decide: how much blood is her daughter's soul worth?
