All 53 stories involve the author, members of her family, or close friends. They include near-death experiences, deathbed visions, past-life regressions, clairvoyance, clairaudience, faith healing, ESP, precognitive dreams, apparations, and automatic writing. The skeptic or the fundamentalist will scoff at most or many of them, perhaps calling some of them mere coincidences, but anyone with an open mind, especially those who have become familiar with the operations of other dimensions of reality, will understand and appreciate these stories. The story of her father's NDE and deathbed visions is especially interesting, intriguing and inspiring.
As Lanigan mentions, most of us are too busy "running helter-skelter" in our everyday activities, too busy just surviving, to take note of the magic or divine influences in our lives. The purpose of the book, she says, is "to lift the blinders from our eyes and reveal the divine ballet performed between humans and angels."
This is not really an angel book, per se. It is one woman's observations relative to psychic phenomena. It may not be for the person who has his or her "blinders" strapped on tightly, but those who have shed their blinders will find it entertaining and validating, while those who have their blinder on only loosely might find it an "eye-opener."

After losing someone close to us, I think we all look for a sign that their spirit is still with us, even though not all of us would publicly admit it. That is not to say I believe in psychics, for me personally I do not; however, I definitely do believe that this life is only part of the journey. When my mother passed away suddenly, twenty years ago, it was my first experience with the death of a family member. As a stood by the casket for a brief moment in complete privacey at the funeral home, I ventured to whisper, "please give me a sign that you are here," Call it fate or coincidence, all it whatever you choose, at that sudden moment one single white rose fell from the casket to the floor...in my mind, my question was answered. I have had two separate, similar instances following the passing of animal companions, who each shared over ten years of my life. No one will ever convince me that we do not live on after our journey on this Earth is over.
"Angel Watch," while not necessarily all about angels, is a beautifully written book, all about "signs" and believing. For anyone who has ever lost anyone dear to them, I hope you will find a measure of comfort in this book.
With the overwhelming success of television shows like Touched by an Angel and Beyond Chance, it's clear that millions of people are seeking reassurance that miracles are possible. For anyone seeking this spiritual connection, or those who are interested in other unexplainable phenomenon, Angel Watch offers a compelling and inspirational read.
A provoking and uplifting collection of real-life miracles, Lanigan's latest book reveals how unexplained synchronicity brings positive changes into people's lives. Angel Watch provides validation for those wondering if they are walking on their intended path, and a sense that everyone is an integral part of an interconnected universe.
