The Case of the Heavenly Host — Kyle Cicero / L.G. Fabbo-Gonnella

It's a madhouse as Mark and Vinnie prepare for their wedding. Jaime is missing in action consumed with her quest to find "just the right forties' gown" for her own pending nuptials. Vinnie is stuck on a complex "secret" case and has no free time to help with any marriage planning. Mrs. Pasquale, Vinnie's mom, is locked in a battle of wills with an archbishop who won't let her priestly cousin bless, "any such unions." Worse, Tortego is offering to preside over the ceremony in his capacity as, "the leader of our vampire clan who is still an ordained priest you know" But things really get crazy for Mark when an angelic messenger for the Heavenly Host approaches him. Dark forces are gathering and Mark is called into action to find the missing sword of the Archangel Michael. As Mark begins his search he encounters two dark angels who take no prisoners. This time Mark Julian will face his worst crises and in the end no one will ever be the same. "And the prophets spoke of the blackened angels of destruction who spread their dark wings across the earth seeking to blot out the love of God"
