Kiss of Death

Life's a motherforker.One second, Gem Hawkins is on her way to being the #1 drag racer in the state and the next she's burying her father, a badass demon hunter.They call it a fluke. Some prick of a demon-level one supposedly-caught him off guard while out on patrol.But Gem knows that's a lie.And since the dirty Nephilim running the investigation won't help, Gem takes matters into her own hands.The Supernatural Security Force is the city's protection against demons-and the only hope Gem has of finding out the truth. If she wants to find out what really happened, she'll need the resources of "detective" status. But graduating isn't so easy for a legacy-or for anyone who crosses Rodrigo Garcia.He's made one thing clear for Gem. Failure is the kiss of death.
