Oblivio
salvationem Angelis opperitur
Oblivion
awaits the Angel’s salvation
The
Boy can see lost souls.
He
has never questioned the fact that he can see them. He thinks of them as the
Dark Chorus. When he sets out to restore the soul of his dead mother it becomes
clear that his ability comes from within him. It is a force that he cannot
ignore – the last shard of the shattered soul of an angel.
To be
restored to the kingdom of light, the shard must be cleansed of the evil that
infects it – but this requires the corrupt souls of the living!
With
the help from Makka, a psychotically violent young man full of hate, and Vee,
an abused young woman full of pain, the Boy begins to kill.
Psychiatrist
Dr Eve Rhodes is seconded to assist the police investigation into the Boy’s
apparently random ritualistic killings. As the investigation gathers pace, a
pattern emerges. When Eve pulls at the thread from an article in an old
psychology journal, what might otherwise have seemed to her a terrible psychotic
delusion now feels all too real…
Will the Boy succeed in restoring the angel’s
soul to the light? Can Eve stop him, or will she be lost to realm of the Dark
Chorus?
