Alexa is a ten-year-old black girl from the projects on the east side of Savannah. When she accidentally stumbles onto a real demon from hell, she writes about it in her diary, which forces the demon world to abduct her and destroy the evidence of their existence. Ashamed at her failure, and exiled as a human for punishment, Alexa's guardian angel, Venera, is desperate to find her. She enlists the help of a man named John, and endows him with angel vision, or the ability to see the world as an angel does. Once John is past the initial shock of seeing everything that really goes on in the universe, he is determined to help Venera to find her lost lamb. This is a fantasy of real life, about things that go on behind the veil that separates the physical world from the spiritual. The truth about the battle between good and evil is more complicated than we could ever know. But this particular battle involves the supernatural forces of not just God and his arch nemesis Satan, but many other powers-that-be who also have a steak in the well being of this shy, innocent child.
