Jael Thompson is half-demon on her mother's side. She and her father, a former priest, have been on the run from demons since she was eight. Jael's sixteenth birthday brings her powers and destiny; she decides to fight against evil, training with her uncle. Skovron provides an engaging twist on demon mythology through multifaceted characters and some everygirl humor.
