The Stage is Set. The Twelve are Chosen. Will they Stand or Fall? Mary Donahoe is a high school senior with a secret and a target on her back. The secret she's been dealing with since she was little. The target was new. Last year she was an ordinary high school junior focused on improving her college admission prospects. Then she met Mariel, a fallen angel stuck in time-out on earth, who was trying to earn his way back to the angelic realms he fell from. Their meeting was the catalyst. Setting in motion the period of testing of humankind. Good versus evil. The price of failure? Eternity.
