A demon takes a scrappy runaway under his wing. The gargoyle, the runaway, and a weary priest turn their attention to a series of killings that may have ties to political unrest-and may have ties to the supernatural.

-- (8/15/2016 12:00:00 AM)"Give this to middle- and high-school readers who enjoy mysteries mixed with dark fantasy."--Booklist
