SOULS OF ANGELS

A tumultuous family life forces Isadora Lugo to flee to India to become a nun. Ten years later, she learns that her father, Don Maximiato Lugo, a prominent businessman, has been convicted of murdering a local prostitute. Honoring a promise she made as a child to her dying mother, Sister Ria returns to care for her eccentric father. Once home, she takes it upon herself to investigate the crime personally, at the same time struggling with her faith and fearing for her life. Staci Snell's Spanish accent is impeccable as she spins a tale of deceit, violence, and madness. Her portrayals of Lugo, the family's devoted housekeeper, and Sister Ria help to unravel this complicated story. B.J.P. © AudioFile 2008, Portland, Maine [Published: AUGUST 2008]
