The Angel Dictionary

Dina Kinnit, 29, lives a dream life and has always relied on her beauty to get her where and who she wants. So when she is at a loss to figure out why Frank, her lover and coworker abandons her, she goes to extremes to recapture his affection but unknowingly unleashes a monstrous hell into the population. Now she needs the help of an ancient East Indian woman to show her how to cope with all the evils besetting not only her own life, but the lives of her fellow employees as well.

Set in 1991, Chicago without the universal advantage in convenience of cell phones and computers, Dina sets out on a wild, far-fetched mission fueled by jealousy and fear, but anchored mostly in the hope of recovery.
