They live in a town called A Better Place – where
everyone has everything they can ever want or need to
make them happy. But still, an angel is sent to convince
them they need something more – something so wondrous
that without it, even though they have everything, they
really have nothing at all.
Twelve year old Starly’s life has been turned upside
down, because her parents left A Better Place without
her and her brother Cross. They won’t be reunited until
their leader, the very affluent Mr. Divario, says the
time is right. It’s already been six months. Is it ever
going to happen?
When Starly meets an angel named Jack, she thinks he’s
come with news of her parents. But Jack has something
else in mind, something she doesn’t want to talk about:
God’s love. She feels that, if God cared for her, He
wouldn’t have separated her family, that her future
happiness rests solely in the hands of her leader, the
only one who can bring them together again. But her
pleas to him fall onto deaf ears.
It takes a tragedy to finally open the eyes of Mr.
Divario. But is it too late? Will Starly and her brother
ever be reunited with their parents? Will Starly have a
chance to learn the real, very important reason for the
angel’s visit?
