I was being robbed. By who? Well that was something I was less certain about. The clunking sound of heavy boots was unmistakable as they produced almost deafening squeaks on the wooden floorboards. It was like my own house desperately  trying to alert me of the intruders. Each squeak of protest was my own personal 'run for your life' alarm. However I was educated enough to know that any attempts at said escape would be futile.

Iva has always been unlucky. Her life was one big misfortune after another. In a time where every person is assigned their own personal angel, the majority beautiful and heroic beings that are rarely seen. Iva however ends up with the worst, most simple-minded, positively useless and entirely insane one out of the lot of them. He goes by Agathon Akakios and it takes her a while to learn the hilarious  irony of such a name.

Suspicions arise, betrayal is in the air, humans disappear and even her own friends start getting on the creepy side. Nothing is as it appears. Can something as unendurable as love even manage to make its usual dramatic entrance in this environment? 

Iva has no choice but to find out.
