Book Description
Guided by the afterlife and cryptic clues, an intuitive young woman ventures to Rome to validate the integrity of a real-life angel in this intriguing novel. Two months after thirty-something Carrie Lamm accepts a three-month severance package to leave her job, she still isn’t employed. Beginning to grow desperate, she answers a cryptic classified wanted ad promising travel and adventure—and angels. When Carrie meets the man who placed the ad, the reclusive and elderly Dr. Gabel, she discovers that the job will entail a great deal of faith on her part. Dr. Gabel wants her to travel to Rome, find out all she can about a man named Angelo Giovanni, and then report back to Dr. Gabel. It’s an odd situation, but with no other job prospects on the horizon, she decides beggars can’t be choosers. Once she arrives in Rome, it isn’t long before Carrie meets Angelo and begins gathering information about him. But Angelo may not be as wholesome as Dr. Gabel thinks. Carrie overhears a disturbing conversation, and it’s not long before she realizes Angelo is in trouble with the wrong kind of people. Surely he isn’t the angel Dr. Gabel thought he was. As she falls deeper and deeper into intrigue, Carrie must rely on her faith to guide her and protect her from harm. From a withering American mansion to the streets of Rome, Seeker of Fortune’s Angel presents a spiritual drama full of faith and hope.

Charged with preparing the way for the rule of the major-generals, he is now under the command of Colonel Robert Lilburne at York. But when Lilburne orders him to a small village on the North York moors with details of the stringent new anti-Royalist laws, Seeker finds that what should be a routine visit will reveal a plot to rival anything in scheming London An invitation to dinner at the house of local businessman Matthew Pullan lifts the lid on the bubbling cauldron of grudges and resentment that is Faithly village.

And by the end of the night, on of those gathered around Matthew Pullan's table will be fatally poisoned.
