Sometimes I wonder if the purpose of my lifeis to serve as a cautionary tale to others--T-shirtCharley Davidson has enough going on without having to worry about twelve hellhounds hot on her trail She is after all incredibly pregnant and feeling like she could pop at any moment But just her luck twelve deadly beasts from hell have chosen this time to escape onto our plane and theyve made Charley their target And so she takes refuge at the only place she thinks they cant get to her the grounds of an abandoned convent Of course if hellhounds arent enough Charley also has a new case to hold her attention the decades-old murder of a newly-vowed nun she keeps seeing in the shadows of the convent Add to that the still unsolved murder of her father the strange behavior of her husband and Charleys tendency to attract the shall we say undead and she has her hands fullxbut also tied While the angry hellhounds cant traverse the consecrated soil they can lurk just beyond its borders like evil sentries so Charley has been forbidden from leaving the sacred grounds Luckily she has her loyal team with her and theyre a scrappy bunch who wont let a few thirsty hellhounds deter themWhile the team scours the prophesies searching for clues on the Twelve for a way to kill them or at least send them back to hell Charley just wants answers and is powerless to get them But the mass of friends theyve accrued helps They convince her even more that everyone in her recent life has somehow been drawn to her as though they were a part of a bigger picture all along Their presence is comforting But the good feelings dont last for long because Charley is about to get the surprise of her crazy mixed-up supernatural lifex.
