Christian is blond haired, blue eyed, and not just your average good looking boy - he's an angel. And when he's sent down from the heavenly offices above to sort out the love lives of the citizens of Gorb, a small town in the West of Ireland, he thinks he's got an easy billet.
The complex lives of the people of Gorb are manifold: there's Mary, still a virgin, not bitter, but desperate to taste the real thing; Sandra, a Northern lap dancer, ready to give up all the grinding and bumping for life back in her roots; Moses, all flicked-back mullet and continually unloved, and Rose, once a true Irish beauty, and now a long suffering wife. And there are plenty more...
It is up to Christian - with a little help from his friends - to gild his arrow and point them at the hearts of those who need him most, but just how true is his aim? Morag Prunty was editor of Irish Tatler before becoming a full time writer. She has written two previous novels, "Dancing With Mules" and "Disco Daddy" (both published by Pan). She lives in Dublin and in County Mayo with her husband and small son.
