The Angel's Cup: a Novel Patricia Little

During her tour of Hearst Castle, the last thing Maggy Lane expects to see is an angel. Practical and level-headed, Maggy is dumbfounded when the luminous creature speaks to her, and even more shocked when her companion, charming and enigmatic Harry Logan, sees nothing. Then Maggy learns that her grandmother's diary is somehow connected to the angel's appearance, and to strange events that occured at the castle sixty years ago. A mysterious death. A stolen art treasure. Events that reverberate in the present and lead to more unanswered questions. What is the Angel's Cup? Does it really exist? As the former curator of the castle museum, Harry's interest is natural. Or is it? What does he really know? Soon they are working together to solve the mystery, and Maggy's growing attraction toward him is undeniable. Will it lead her to a love that might conquer time itself-or cost Maggy her life? Set amidst the luxury of Hearst Castle, past and present, this is a story of love brought to life in the pages of an old diary, a great talent who died too soon, and a little glimpse of Heaven-where an angel is 'nobody in particular.'
