Angels unaware
(New-Book)

In the 1930's coal mining town of Galen, Pennsylvania, Darcy Willickers lives with her two sisters and her mother Jewel. Together they own and operate the dilapidaated Hospitality Inn - a failing hotel that accommodates a succession of non-paying misfits and wanderers, including a drunken poet, an AWOL sailor, and an itinerant hangman. Trying to keep her family fed and a roof over their heads is hard enough for Darcy without having to fend off the obsessive attentions of the local minister's son. When a handsome and engaging Luca D'Angeli arrives with his father, fresh off the boat from Naples, Darcy and Luca find themselves drawn to one another. But Darcy harbors old secrets of murder, violence, and retribution, which lead to a tumultuous chain of events that will upend her life and the lives of those she loves the most.
