Dark Angel


"Call me Angel," He says.


One winter day Gillian Lennox almost dies... and
is saved by an angel. His hair is golden. His eyes
are as violet as her own. And when Gillian comes
back from her near-death experience, he comes
with her. An invisible guardian that only Gillian
can see, he whispers the secrets of popularity in her
ear. Overnight, the once-shy Gillian becomes a
sensation. David, the boy she has loved for years,
notices her.

But Angel begins to make bizarre demands.
To draw Gillian into a world of risk and dark
excitement. At last, she has to face the terrifying
question: Who is Angel? Waht has she brought
back from the Other Side? And can she and David
find out his secret before it's too late...?


So this is what happens when you die.


Gillian had the sudden gut-trembling feeling
that the beauty around her could easily come
apart at the seams.
Oh, goodness, let me think good thoughts.
Please. I wish I hadn't watched so many hor-
ror movies. I don't want to see anything ter-
rible-like theground splitting and hands
reaching for me. And I don't want anyone to
meet me-looking like something rotting
with bones exposed-after all.
And then, a few feet away for her, above
the grass, a mist of light appeared. It seemed
to get brighter as she watched, and to stretch
from very far away.
And there was a shape in it, coming
toward her.
