“Team Packer” is a covert Catholic strike team against supernatural evil with a secret weapon in its arsenal: 16-year-old Delilah Vincentio—the world’s only Christian succubus. Trained by demons to despise humanity and lead them into sin, her unprecedented capacity for mercy caused her to renounce her place in Hell—and gain an angelic referral to Team Packer.
Delilah is assigned to infiltrate the Order of the Lightbringer, a Satanic cult that plans to make Pittsburgh a test site for the Apocalypse. After Delilah’s identity is almost discovered, Team Packer sends her to high school to hide out until things cool down.
But while Delilah may be reformed from her beguiling ways, she’s still very much a demon—and she hasn’t learned how to play well with others. In fact, trying to fit in and keep a low profile at high school may prove to be a tougher battle than bringing down the Order of the Lightbringer.
“The demons in Hell are secretly defecting and pushing their infernal realm towards Heaven in a handcart! This story kept me riveted from start to finish—and even a little tearful here and there. A ride and a half!” —Adele Abbot, author, Postponing Armageddon and Of Machines & Magics
“5 out of 5 Pitchforks! One of the top ten stories about Succubi that I have encountered this year. The writing is wonderful, being the right tone for the moment when it arrives, and setting an image in the words that is very vivid and clear. Strong characters, settings, and plots that weave neatly through the work as a whole. In short, well and truly recommended reading. —Tera, Queen of the Succubi, A Succubi’s Tale blog
“A unique twist on the challenges of being an immortal teenager. Delilah is a demon who renounces her evil ways to join the battle against her own kind. Barton Paul Levenson skillfully moves between theological musings to fun and inventive situations in a blink of an eye to create a delightful, easy read.” —Catherine Russell, author, The Stage and Exit Stage Left
