In "Too Late for Angels" a mysterious elderly lady shows up at Lucy's door and claims to be the same person who was kidnapped from the area sixty years ago. Before anyone could confirm her identity, the lady is found dead, on the same night a member of the community is also killed under strange circumstances. A neighbor is also found dead a few days later. Lucy is caught up in the mystery as someone breaks in looking for something and tries to run over Lucy. But Lucy has friends and a guardian angel to help solve the mystery.

1) I did not guess who the culprit was--but that was because once all was revealed, the reasons behind the murders made absolutely no sense to me. Even if Lucy hadn't ruined their plans, forensically the whole thing would have fallen apart

2) The Angel concept was pretty cheesy, I think I could have lived with that but the angel was also useless. Didn't help solve anything, wasn't around anytime this stuff happened to Lucy, etc... Also, why does Lucy get a guardian angel, what about these poor murdered people? How come they didn't have an angel around for them?
