THE GIVEN is the final novel in New York Times
bestselling author Vicki
Pettersson’s acclaimed Celestial Blues series. Readers have been eagerly
awaiting this dramatic conclusion, and THE
GIVEN (Harper Voyager Trade Paperback Original; May, 2014; 9780062066206; $14.99), delivers on
Pettersson’s renowned creative hallmarks: innovative world building and darkly
sexy supernatural intrigue.
THE GIVEN resumes the thrilling saga of fallen angel/private eye Griffin Shaw, and the spirited, rockabilly reporter Kit Craig as they battle long odds in Sin City. Incredibly imaginative, THE GIVEN spotlights Vegas’s Rat Pack glory days, its flinty present-day turmoil, and the immortal realm of the Everlast, where Centurions (mortals turned
angels) and Pure angels co-exist on the
celestial plane. What results is a perfect mix of classic noir mystery, urban
fantasy, and paranormal romance—and
just the right amount of crime scene grit and drama to intrigue readers until
the very last page.
After learning
that his wife survived the attack that killed him fifty years earlier, angel/PI
Griffin Shaw is determined to find Evie—no matter the cost. But his obsession has come at
a price. Grif has been forced to give up his strong, burgeoning
love for reporter Katherine “Kit” Craig – the woman who made life worth living
again – while dedicating himself to finding a woman he may no longer know.
Yet when Kit is
attacked for a second time, it’s clear that there are forces in both the mortal
and heavenly realm determined to protect secrets long buried in the past. In
order to survive his second go-round on the Surface, Grif must convince Kit to
reunite with him professionally and help uncover decades of deceit from
dangerous enemies both old and new. Yet a prophecy also looms, threatening to
upend Grif’s every sacrifice, testing his limits as an angel, his dedication to
Evie … and his love for Kit. Gritty scenes and heartfelt emotion
propel the dramatic finale to the Celestial
Blues trilogy, finally giving readers the answer to the one deadly question
that they’ve been dying to know: Who killed Griffin Shaw?
