Plot Summary of Angel Falls
"Although this was a fairly simplistic plot, the characters are so well-drawn that you can't help caring about them. A poor young girl gets caught up in the fast life of her movie star lover. Later decides to leave Hollywood to protect her child. Marries a good man, has a great life in a small town, but years later is still secretly obsessed with the first love. An terrible accident brings out the truth for the woman, her husband, and her children."
Andrea Jackson, Resident Scholar
