The Book of Angel

Angel's life didn't start out easy. The daughter of a Dutch prostitute and a Vietnam Vet in the 70s, her life quickly spiraled into abuse, homelessness, abandonment, and finally foster care. As a child, she learned to escape the trauma surrounding her by hiding in the recesses of her mind...her rabbit holes. But soon, she hears a Voice. It is one of hope and resilience that urges her to keep going even through the trials of her teenage years and empowers her with love and self-worth.

Inspired by true events, Angie Bowen has woven a story that defies stereotypes and statistics to reveal a young woman driven to succeed against the odds. It is a story of renewal and a testament that the love of found family can be even more powerful than blood.
