Description

In San Francisco, a six-month rash of unexplained arsons confounds the police. Detectives Dave Peters and Danny Spitz - the D & D team - are assigned to the fire-chasing patrol. They become personally involved when Dave's wife and son die in a department-store fire, one of many triggered by an almond-scented, revenge-seeking angel, who has come to earth as a demon hunter, a search-and-destroy army of one determined to annihilate fallen angels.

Destroying this prey is its only purpose; that these flash-fire blasts also kill innocent humans and destroy buildings is of no concern. Vanessa Vangellen, a theology teacher who punishes herself for childhood sexual abuse by extinguishing lit cigarettes on her forearms, provides needed insight on angels. Ghastly hallucinations and the torching of their precinct house fail to scare off the two detectives who must, above all else, stop the rogue angel's fiery rampage.

The line between good and evil becomes blurred in this twisted tale of fire and angels.
