When "Sufi chick" spa owner Núr Lucas hires him to locate the angel of despair, private detective C. R. Oliver thinks he’s taking another safe and easy missing-person case, but he soon finds himself swept into the otherworldly schemes of the Seven Sins, the emotional manipulation of his own client, and the temptations of a young fallen angel who clues him in to the secret for cheating Death Herself.Drawing on sources as disparate as film noir, quantum physics, Medieval theology, and Gilligan’s Island, Pin pulls the reader through a two-fisted, hardboiled investigation into the family intrigues of the semi-divine, a mystery that dredges up the conflict of individual and archetype, the role of literature in defining the soul, the decadence of social progress, and the basic metaphysical nature of reality.
