Book Overview
The bestselling author of THE THORN BIRDS returns with a novel of laughter, passion and more than a little magic ...
1960, Sydney's Kings Cross. Harriet Purcell leaves her conventional, respectable home and respectable, passionless boyfriend and moves into a rooming house owned by Mrs. Delvecchio Schwartz.
There, Harriet finds a life she relishes - excitement, adventure and passion. Mrs. Delvecchio Schwartz makes a living from telling fortunes, and is mother to 4-year-old Flo. Beautiful little Flo is mute, and Harriet comes to love her as if Flo were her own - and must protect her at all costs when tragedy strikes...
Angel is Colleen McCullough at her vintage best, drawing on her own experiences of living in the Cross in the 1960s and writing of a world that has long gone. Most of all, it is a tale of a woman's love for a child, and what she is prepared to endure to ensure her survival.

Edition confusion
I love Colleen McCullough's books, so I can say that I know this will be a good book, even though I haven't read it yet. So it gets a 5 star rating from me. But I want to let people know that this book is the same book as Angel Puss, another title here by McCullough. Angel is the UK edition of the book. Angel Puss is the original Australian title. No idea why they changed the title when it was printed in the UK. Apparently, this book has never been released in the US. I can recommend the book under either title, but just wanted to make sure no one made the mistake I did and ordered two copies of the same book.

Another winner
I'm a 70 year old man and I loved this book. So did my 30 year old daughter. I've been reading McCullought for a long time and she just gets better and better. Can't wait for her next release.
