Same as Of Angels and Orphans
I was very confused why the description of this book was the same as Of Angels and Orphans, so I did some investigating. It is supposedly a cleaner version. Which should say in the description so readers are not misled in thinking it is a whole new story entirely. Loved reading Of Angels and Orphans and a few of her other books.
