Welcome to Purgatory Cove, Texas population thirty-one-thousand and two. Thirty-one-thousand and one of those people are just living their lives, but for that remaining one, it isn't just life as usual. For her, Purgatory Cove is her Purgatory. She's a fallen guardian angel named Trinity Jones. She was sent to Purgatory for letting the soul she was guarding die before his time. In her defense, she was guarding Hilter so yeah, she's not sorry. While Trinity died in 1552 at the ripe old age of seventeen and didn't attend high school, her Purgatory is living all four years of high school over and over and over. Since she abhors overly emotional people, busy work, and drama, it's the perfect act of contrition to purify her soul so that she may reenter heaven. She's been in Purgatory Cove since 1945. How much contrition does one soul need?
Just when Trinity has resigned herself to being in high school forever, The Holy Mother intercedes on her behalf with The Creator. Trinity's task is to save seven people from the seven deadly sins before she graduates from high school again in four months. If she fails, she goes directly to hell which for her would probably be an eternity of something really horrible like teaching middle school or studying the mating habits of cockroaches or living in a world whose entire population is made up of mimes or worse, a combination of all three. Since she refuses to teach the mating habits of cockroaches to middle school mimes, she will stop at nothing to save seven souls from the seven deadly sins.
Envy
Trinity Jones is a fallen guardian angel stuck in Purgatory until she saves seven souls from the seven deadly sins. Her first sin is envy and his name is Nicholas Silvester.
Nicholas isn't a nice guy. He works at the local country club. In his mind, none of the club's members deserve the soft life they have inherited. They have everything handed to them and they didn't have to work a day in their lives to get it. His jealousy is long past resentment and has moved into straight up hate.
But he has a plan to get even with the haves. He's going to knock up the daughter of one of the club's members, and bam instant wealth. Only the girl he chooses doesn't have as much money as he'd thought. He ends up locking her and the baby inside his house and setting it on fire. He collects money from her life insurance policy. Murder for life insurance becomes his new full-time job.
Trinity introduces Nicholas to Jess Downton, a kindergarten teacher who moonlights as a musician. Through Jess, Trinity shows Nicholas that true love isn't about material things.
When Nicholas comes to a crossroad in his life, will he choose the road to heaven or the road to hell?
Trinity's afterlife hangs in the balance.
