Angel

Marrow, who frequently appears in magazines and on TV, teams with author Hayden (aka Laura Kenner) on her first novel, an inane paranormal thriller. A Hudson River plane crash leaves only one adult survivor: a woman who manages to save herself and a baby, but can't recall her own name. Nicknamed the "Angel of the Hudson," she's eventually identified as Angela Sands. Hospitalized for minor injuries and later transferred to a private health center for her amnesia, Angela has an odd complex of symptoms. She can read, or hear, the thoughts of most men; has the sexual appetite of a nymphomaniac; can transform physically into a man's ideal woman; and has vivid, incomplete memories of her own murder by her husband before the plane crash. Aided by TV reporter Dante Kearns, Angela works to control her "talents" as well as discover her real identity and bring her husband to justice in a novel that will appeal mainly to curious Marrow fans.
