Earth Angel Author:Raymond Obstfeld This is the story of Dr. Season Gottlieb, a brainy woman who has nonetheless drifted through her life as if it belonged to someone else. She's got it good, working in a day clinic treating sniffles and sprained ankles and engaged to a man she's built a relationship with for eight years, but it all comes apart the day her fiance snaps and guns do... more »wn five people in the waiting room of the clinic before he himself is killed by the police. Suddenly, Season is at loose ends, unsure of what to do with her life anymore. She decides she wants to be an angel of mercy to the families of those who were killed at the clinic, so she adopts a disguise and a false name and begins tracking them down so she can try to do some good in their lives. Unfortunately, her every attempt backfires. Finally, when she's just about out of options, she meets David, the ex-husband of one of the victims, and when things don't immediately backfire, she decides to stick around to see what she can do to enrich the lives of David and his two teenage charges, Rachel and Josh. Even though David doesn't know her real name, it disturbs Season that in almost no time at all, she feels closer to him than she ever did to her dead fiance Tim. She's just about to move on before she can irrevocably damage David's family, when a story from the evening news interferes. Someone has been kidnapping young girls and leaving cryptic notes, and because of her almost photographic memory of trivia, Season is able to figure them out. As she had been unable to do any of the good she set out to do, Season is determined that she is going to help the police catch the kidnapper before leaving David behind and going back to her own life. However, nothing goes as planned, especially since her feelings for David are deeper than she wants to admit.« less
