Angol
September 1934-Michael Northwood plunges into the Willamette River to the sound of horrifying screams from the luxury liner Morro Castle as it founders, ablaze in a raging sea. His one, all-consuming thought is of his beloved wife, who had been with him on the ill-fated ship. Present Day-It should have been a fatal accident, but Amanda Poole inexplicably vanishes from her car the instant before it crashes. She is shaken but untouched, except for certain strange and unwanted abilities that she now possesses. Her well-ordered life as curator of Pittock Mansion begins to crumble, as Amanda realizes that someone, or something, wants her dead. The heavenly thread that binds these two seemingly unrelated lives stretches back to Amanda's troubled childhood and to Michael's idyllic marriage. Clues to the pair's unfathomable bond point to a Norwood family heirloom known as the Ashkhanna suite, yet the connection remains unclear. As their nightmares become real and every belief is tested, they find that all paths lead to the Angel's Key and to lost legends of angels and demons.
