God doesn't make mistakes.

That choice to give man free will, though, that has caused nothing but problems. Problems that need fixing.

When an angel shows up to hand Samuel Mason a task he never asked for, his first reaction is to refuse. Killing the little boy next door is unthinkable. But there's a contract with Sam's name already on it and the angel won't take no for an answer.

Fulfilling his task will ruin Sam's life, his family, and devastate the boy's mother. How long can a good kid hold out before he becomes the very thing society expects him to be?
