One morning, Crow Hotfire woke up in Heaven. He was immediately told he didn't belong there and that his equally as dead sister, Carmen, did. So much so she bargains for him to get a chance to earn his place.
To do so, the Arch-Angel Gabriel gives Crow the task of helping someone redeem for their sins. The individual chosen is Rose Jeehl, the thirteen-year-old co-founder of a dainisa rights protest group. The real kicker is Gabriel is only allowing Crow five days to figure out what's wrong with Rose and fix it.
Joined by a grumpy supervisor named Remy, Crow spends five days trying to help Rose all while having a bit of a crisis over the whole 'my sister and I are dead and angels are real' thing.
