Chapter 9 Summary

Outside, Penryn sees a flashlight and hears a man calling out to see if anyone is there; the crashing implies that there are at least three people in the encroaching gang. She begins to wish she hadn’t chained Raffe up. After a while, she hears her mother scream. Penryn lifts a chair and bangs it against the outside-facing window, but the glass doesn’t break; Raffe then grabs the metal cart and shatters the window. They flee out the window and circle the building, finding another broken window. They see a new corpse, stabbed with six butter knives and painted with a lipstick pentagram, and Penryn realizes her mother is safe.

Penryn sees her mother, then turns to see Raffe surrounded by the gang members, at least 10 of them; while he has taken care of three, he is clearly overwhelmed. Determined to save Paige, Penryn rushes to help him, taking the sword, wings, and key to his chains first. She tries to use the silhouette of the wings and the names of other angels to trick and intimidate the men away, but the wings slip; Raffe rolls his eyes at her. Raffe then attacks the men while they are distracted and Paige takes on the others, using her skills to take them all down.
