James Bellini—known to all as the Angel of Death—rules the underworld through a reputation built on blood and terror. Whispers follow him through shadowed corridors: merciless, lethal, responsible for more deaths than anyone in the Circle. Fear itself bows to his name. Yet beneath the legend lies an impossible truth. James Bellini has never taken a life. A single misunderstanding spiraled into myth, a mistake too entrenched for even he could dismantle. Now the entire criminal empire trembles at his shadow, and rival bosses grant him the deference of equals. But disentangling fact from fiction requires divine intervention—something James lacks as he navigates the suffocating web of his own making, trapped between the monster everyone believes him to be and the man he actually is.
