Synopsis
In present-day Los Angeles, Caroline Martin has everything but the thing her soul craves most: a daughter. When she undergoes what is supposed to be a routine hysterectomy, she unwittingly aborts the little girl she's always longed for, leaving the unborn baby's soul in limbo. Sharing a hospital room with Caroline is a pregnant woman who's just been shot by her boyfriend. Her unborn child is barely hanging on--and the soul of Caroline's hovering baby cannot resist the overwhelming urge to rebirth via this unclaimed fetus. In the aftermath of these events, two engaging heavenly guides, working together through sensitive humans, struggle to find an alternate way to help Caroline and her would-be daughter forge the link that was always meant to be between them--before the child's brutal father makes good on his vow to steal the girl and disappear with her forever. By turns comic and tragic, Rachael's Return explores the concept of soul mates, the afterlife, reincarnation, and relationships that never die, even as it offers readers a glimpse of the mysteries that exist within the ordinary and challenges assumptions about the true nature of reality.
