Ipsa hates reading human prayers.
Unfortunately, that’s the task she’s destined to spend an eternity doing.
An angel in the Prayer Reader Department, Ipsa must read a never-ending flood of earthly prayers before delivering them to the mysterious Answering Department. Unlike other prayer readers, Ipsa finds most humans–known as Hopelings in their world—to be whiny, their prayers forgettable.
Until she stumbles on one prayer she’s not allowed to read.
That cryptic prayer sparks a connection with its hopeling owner Ipsa can't quite understand, setting her on a path to find the fourteen-year-old boy who sent it. As Ipsa searches for clues, her sleuthing reveals an unsettling observation: So many prayers go unanswered.
In a race against time, Ipsa must decide how much she’ll risk for a hopeling she’s never met.
