“Tobin is a newly assigned angel in the celestial Department of Luck and Fortunes who approaches his bureaucratic duties with earnest dedication, even when faced with incompetent colleagues and systemic dysfunction. He genuinely cares about the humans affected by the department’s work and struggles with the moral complexities of cosmic justice. His idealism and empathy often put him at odds with established procedures, leading him to bend rules when he believes it serves a greater good.”

The Lucksmiths
When a junior Lucksmith discovers a mistake in the Luck Ledger, his quest to set things right threatens to upend Heaven’s bureaucracy—and the destinies of humans on Earth.
As a newly appointed Lucksmith, Tobin expects tedious cosmic bookkeeping—not a celestial conspiracy that could get him cast out of the Heavenly Realm.
On Earth, Maya has been trapped in a cycle of bad luck, much to the chagrin of her guardian angel, Azaran. Despite her talent and kindness, every career breakthrough slips away, every romance fizzles, and Azaran’s yearly complaints about her case get dismissed as “guardian bias.”
When Tobin and Pip, his donut-obsessed sidekick, discover that a former Lucksmith sabotaged Maya’s fortune allocation years ago, they try to fix it—only to stumble into the aftermath of an unauthorized miracle that sends shockwaves through the Heavenly Realm.
Miracles come with consequences, and the Archangels want answers. One thing is certain: The Almighty will require divine justice for interference with His plan.
Racing against the possibility of their banishment, Tobin and Azaran must navigate tricky politics and a sophisticated cover-up while building a case to reform the Luck Ledger. But exposing the truth means challenging a divine system that has remained unchanged for millennia.
The Lucksmiths is a witty, heartfelt tale about the essence of good fortune, the courage to do what’s right, and the celestial bureaucracy responsible for assisting the Almighty in managing the daily affairs of eight billion humans.
