California angel
1995
Book
"Is Toy Johnson an angel of mercy gifted with miraculous psychic powers? Or is this strikingly beautiful woman a kidnapper and killer, with a growing list of children as victims? This is the startling question bestselling author Nancy Taylor Rosenberg poses in her remarkable new novel."--BOOK JACKET. "Who she really is and what she really does are bewildering questions even for Toy Johnson. She only knows that a near-death experience has launched her on a journey into the unknown - a journey she is destined to repeat again and again with astonishing results. When she returns to her familiar work world as a teacher in Southern California and her seemingly ideal marriage to a brilliant surgeon, she is haunted by dreamlike memories of children on the brink of death - children she believes she somehow has saved."--BOOK JACKET. "Her husband, Stephen, thinks she is hallucinating. Her best friend, Sylvia, thinks she is suffering from the frustrations of a childless marriage. The staff of a high-tech Manhattan hospital thinks this is how she deals with her mysterious and frightening malady. Yet despite what anyone thinks, when Toy sees herself on television rescuing a boy from a deadly fire, she knows she is a purveyor of miracles - a living angel. But this newfound vision of herself is challenged when she is arrested for kidnapping and charged with murder."--BOOK JACKET.
