Bert and Betty Brown do, because Bert found one in his shirt pocket the other day while he was driving his bus. All of a sudden they had a little boy of their very own to care for - how heavenly!
Bert and Betty's friends think Angelino is lovely. So do Nancy and Jack and Alice from school. But the head teacher, Mrs. Mole, is not so sure. Neither is Professor Smellie. And who is the mysterious man in black who claims to be a school inspector? What could all these sneaky adults possibly have against such a perfect little angel?

I'm the one who's left behind. I'm the one to tell the tale. I knew them both... knew how they lived and how they died.
Claire is Ella Grey's best friend. She's there when the whirlwind arrives on the scene: catapulted into a North East landscape of gutted shipyards; of high arched bridges and ancient collapsed mines. She witnesses a love so dramatic it is as if her best friend has been captured and taken from her. But the loss of her friend to the arms of Orpheus is nothing compared to the loss she feels when Ella is taken from the world. This is her story - as she bears witness to a love so complete; so sure, that not even death can prove final.
