Ipsa hates reading prayers.
Unfortunately, that's the eternal task she's been assigned.
An angel in the Prayer Reading Department, Ipsa must read and sort a never-ending flood of earthly requests before delivering them to the mysterious Answering Department. Unlike other prayer readers, Ipsa finds most humans-known as hopelings-annoying and their prayers forgettable.
Until she stumbles upon one prayer she's not supposed to read.
Its cryptic message sparks her curiosity. Ipsa can't understand why she feels so drawn to its sender, a fourteen-year-old boy living in the aftermath of a school shooting. As she searches for clues to help him, she uncovers a host of secrets that lead to an unsettling question: Why are so many prayers going unanswered?
