Aus dem Klappentext

Mebbe you caym to Blinkbonny & to Missus Malones door & into the parlor wer he told you of all the spirits that wer still arownd you and that stil loved you even tho you thort they wer gon.

Mebbe you came in serch of healing & he tuchd you jentl jentl & askd you wer the pane was & drew that pane owt from you & you wer heald.

Mebbe you even stood ther & watchd wile he tryd to heal the dead.

Bak in those days he was the Aynjel Child.

Those days ar long gone. The dead ar gone. God & his aynjels & santes are gone.

The Anjel Childs no mor.
