One Day in New York

Any wish can be granted: money, power…even death itself can be beaten back. All it takes is the blood of an angel. When a woman is crucified and burned alive in the center of New York City, Jake Timber is already on his way. Tasked with locating an extremist group interested in a recently discovered relic, the Cloisters Cross, Jake expected trouble. After all, as one of the top agents of ARKANE, the secret organization entrusted with protecting the world from supernatural threats, he's been in the game a long time, and has saved the world more than once. But that's the problem. Battered and broken again and again, the constant physical and mental struggles of his ARKANE missions have left Jake scarred.

Now, his investigation will lead Jake to the Blood of the Angel: a relic that can grant any wish to whoever drinks its contents. A race against time, and against the infinite resources of Gilles Noiret, a dying, ruthless billionaire willing to sacrifice anyone else to save his own life. But this time, the race is different. Because this time Jake isn't sure if he's trying to stop Gilles and save the world…or if he's looking for the Blood of the Angel so he can use it himself. What price would he pay to ease his own pain? Would he sacrifice one person? Two? Or maybe even an entire city?

One Day in New York (part of the bestselling ARKANE series or as a standalone title) is a supernatural adventure thriller from the mind of New York Times and USA Today best-selling author J.F. Penn.
