A price was settled; a debt, escalated. Time. There would never be enough.</em></strong><br /> <br /> It's been two years since Gia Basso witnessed archangels and demons waging war upon each other beneath the dome of the Galleria Vittorio Emanuele in Milan. Traumatised, Gia has been in self-imposed exile on the English coast.<br /> <br /> But the sudden reappearance of Mercy in her life, in a new and terrifying incarnation, draws Gia into a desperate struggle to locate Lucifer -- who holds Ryan Daley captive in order to keep him from Mercy, his beloved, forever.<br /> <br /> Tasked by the archangels to destroy Lucifer, and by Mercy to help her trace and free Ryan, Gia is pushed to the limits of human endurance as she traverses the earth -- with the help of friends old and new -- to do the impossible.<br /> <br /> For Lucifer and his demons have discovered a new way to move freely in the human world. And Mercy and Gia must bargain with the Archangel of Death himself, Azraeil, to get what they want.<br /> <br /> <em>Wraith</em> is the fifth dark, thrilling and genre-defying instalment of the much-loved <em>Mercy</em> series from the acclaimed author of <em>The Astrologer's Daughter</em>.<br /> <br /> 'A racy story of good and evil in a world where angels aren't all sweetness and light' -- Sunday Herald Sun<br /> </p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><p><strong>Praise for the </strong><em><strong>Mercy</strong></em><strong> series</strong></p><p>'A sinister and rather fabulous world' -- <em>The Age</em></p><p>'Gripping ... by the end, you can't help but wonder who this angel of Mercy will become next' -- <em>Sunday Herald Sun</em></p><p>'This thriller has a creepiness that keeps the pages turning.' -- <em>Kirkus Reviews</em></p><p>'Mercy['s] sarcasm, courage, and determination will hook readers.' -- <em>School Library Journal</em></p><p>'Subtly beautiful and utterly intriguing, Rebecca Lim's Mercy series brims with mystery and romance that pull readers through the veil between worlds real and mythical.' -- Andrea Cremer, <em>New York Times</em>-bestselling author of the <em>Nightshade</em> series</p><p>'A page-turning mystery with touches of romance ... beautifully written prose; and a dark and twisting plot that kept me guessing' -- Laurie Faria Stolarz, bestselling author of <em>Touch</em> and the <em>Blue is for Nightmares</em> series</p><p>'What is compelling about this novel is not only its tightly constructed plot but the lyric quality of the writing ...
