Opis

"A magical tale of love and redemption that is as wonderfully written as it is captivating . . . Angels earns its wings."
Pittsburgh Post-Gazette Margaret Quinn lives alone, quietly mourning the disappearance of her only child, who fled ten years earlier to join a radical student group known as the Angels of Destruction.
On a cold winter s night, a nine-year-old girl arrives on Margaret s doorstep, claiming to be an orphan with no place to go. This child beguiles Margaret, and together they hatch a plan to pass her off as her newly found granddaughter, Norah Quinn.
Their conspiracy is made vulnerable by Norah s magical revelations to the children of the town, and by a lone figure shadowing the girl, who threatens to reveal the child s true identity and purpose. Who are these strangers really? And what is their connection to the past, the Angels, and Margaret s long-missing daughter?
