Book 2 of The Crucible Trilogy.
Reveal this secret to any other, and you can be sure that the angels will seek their revenge. At last Thomas is nearing the end of his journey. He wishes to find the Angel's casket, the casket that was lost when Wynkyn de Worde died before his time when the godless filled the land . . .
Thomas is still unsure just who to trust. Hal is his friend, but even he seems to march to a different drummer at times . . . is he Margaret's lover as it seems to be? Margaret is beautiful and loving but the Archangel Michael says that she is the spawn of evil, that she is not to be trusted and never to be loved. Indeed, Thomas himself betrays Margaret by sending her into the cruel and violent world of Richard and his minions.
Consumed by guilt, Thomas finds that he cannot fully trust the Archangel's words anymore . . . and then Margaret and Hal deliver the casket into Thomas's hands . . . In his wildest imagination, Thomas could not have foreseen what he is to find out.
Who can win his soul . . . the army of God . . . or Satan?
