I really enjoyed this Alice Hoffman novel. I loved the concept that there is a lurking angel waiting to offer peace where none can be seen. The angel may manifest in the deeds or words of anyone – that’s the point. A lurking angel to lift you up and bring you home to peace – everywhere and anywhere.
The characters are haunted and imperfect. The call to love draws each of these characters to do things they later regret. They aren’t bad people, just unhappy and ignoring the eventual consequences of their behaviors. They are just like us – stumbling fools falling into grace time and time again.
