Innocent Blood: Blood Gospel Book II

A vicious attack at a ranch in California thrusts archaeologist Erin Granger back into the fold of the Sanguines, an immortal order founded on the blood of Christ and tasked with protecting the world from the beasts haunting its shadows. Following the prophetic words of the Blood Gospel—a lost tome written by Christ—Erin must again join forces with Army Sergeant Jordan Stone and the mysterious Father Rhun Korza to find and protect a boy believed to be an angel given flesh. But an enemy of terrifying power and ambition seeks the same child—not to save the world, but to destroy it.
Erin must discover the truth behind Christ's early years and His first true miracle, an act that yet remains unfulfilled and holds the only hope for the world. The search for the truth will take Erin and the others across centuries, around the world, and at last to the very gates of Hell itself, where the fate of mankind awaits.
