Prezentare carte: Blood and Feathers (#1) de Lou Morgan

 Prezentare carte:

"Care este primul lucru la care te gandesti cand spun "inger"? a intrebat Mallory. Alice a ridicat din umeri: "Nu stiu... arme?"
Alice este intr-una dintre acele zile proaste. A intarziat la lucru, a pierdut autobuzul si acum trebuie sa mearga prin ploaie. Nici nu-si da seama ca ziua este pe cale sa devina si mai rea: ceva mai rau, de nivelul unui rau de poveste, vine odata cu sosirea a doi ingeri care pretind ca toata viata ei este o minciuna.

Razboiul dintre ingeri si Cazuti se intensifica; stravechea balanta oscileaza si oamenii nevinovati au de suferit fiind prinsi in focul incrucisat. Daca echilibrul nu este refacut, ingerii trebuie sa actioneze pentru ca altfel exista riscul ca cei Cazuti sa ia controlul, pentru totdeauna.
Si Alice pica la mijloc. Vanata de cei Cazuti si indrumata de Mallory - un inger cazut in dizgratie, care are probleme cu bautura si povara multor secrete - Alice va invata adevarul despre propriul trecut... si de ce vor ingerii s-o trimita direct in iad.
Ce vor cei Cazuti de la ea? Cum de stie Mallory atat de multe despre trecutul ei? Ce ascund ingerii si poate avea ea incredere in careva?
Prinsa in plasele jocurilor pentru putere ale ingerilor si Lucifer insusi, se pare ca nu doar de demonii iadului trebuie Alice sa se fereasca.

Description:
"What's the first thing you think of when I say 'angel'?" asked Mallory. Alice shrugged. "I don't know... guns?" Alice isn't having the best of days. She was late for work, she missed her bus, and now she's getting rained on. What she doesn't know is that her day's about to get worse: the epic, grand-scale kind of worse that comes from the arrival of two angels who claim everything about her life is a lie.
The war between the angels and the Fallen is escalating; the age-old balance is tipping, and innocent civilians are getting caught in the cross-fire. If the balance is to be restored, the angels must act - or risk the Fallen taking control. Forever.
That’s where Alice comes in. Hunted by the Fallen and guided by Mallory - a disgraced angel with a drinking problem and a whole load of secrets - Alice will learn the truth about her own history… and why the angels want to send her to hell.
What do the Fallen want from her? How does Mallory know so much about her past? What is it the angels are hiding - and can she trust either side?
Caught between the power plays of the angels and Lucifer himself, it isn't just hell's demons that Alice will have to defeat..
