Uprostřed lesa stojí dům zvaný Lichen Hall, místo opředené dávnými pověstmi o přízracích, čarodějnicích a dítěti, které nebylo tak docela dítětem. V roce 1965 do Lichen Hall přijíždí Pearl Gorhamová, která sem byla jako mnoho dalších mladých žen poslána porodit. A brzy v ní vzklíčí podezření, že majitelé panství něco skrývají. Seznámí se tu se záhadnou ženou a jejím malým synem, kteří žijí na pozemcích panství, a společně začnou odhalovat tajemství tohoto místa. Pravda pomalu vyplouvá na povrch, ale spolu s ní se vkrádá i temnota a Pearl musí nakonec přehodnotit všechno, co zná a čemu věří – a riskovat, co je jí nejdražší.

After her death, a woman is sent back to life as her own guardian angel in this lyrical first novel that examines questions of fate, free will, regret, and hope. Returned to earth as her own guardian angel, Margot Delacroix, now named Ruth, watches herself, through her own birth, a troubled childhood, her first love, her son's birth, and, ultimately, her own untimely death. As she passes through this second chance at life, she must re-experience and record her biggest mistakes and her deepest regrets. As she relives her life, Ruth tries to change it and, in the end, prevent her own death. Ruth also tries to prevent Margot from ever falling in love with her husband Toby -- and eventually falls back in love with him herself. A love story that proves that love is stronger than death, The Guardian Angel's Journal is a rich, lyrical novel that examines the questions of fate, free will, faith, and hope. This story asks readers to consider what they would change about the life they've already lived.
