Original Sin: Alison Brennan

Haunted by chilling memories of demonic possession and murder, Moira O'Donnell has spent seven years hunting down her mother, Fiona, whose command of black magic has granted her unprecedented control of the underworld. Now Moira's search has led her to a small Californian town that's about to become hell on earth. Tormented by his own terrifying past and driven by powers he can't explain, ex-seminarian Rafe Cooper joins Moira's dangerous quest. But Fiona is one devilish step ahead. Hungry for greater power, eternal youth and stunning beauty, the sorceress is unleashing upon the mortal world the living incarnation of the Seven Deadly Sins. Together with a demonologist, a tough female cop and a pair of star-crossed teenagers, Moira and Rafe are humanity's last chance to snatch salvation from the jaws of damnation.
