From #1 New York Times bestselling author Karen Kingsbury comes the third novel in the unforgettable Angels Walking series about divine intervention and the trials and triumphs of life for a group of friends.

Despite needing a heart transplant and against the advice of her doctor, Mary Catherine moves to Uganda to work at a brand new orphanage. Whatever time she has left, Mary Catherine wants to spend it helping children—especially since there will be no children of her own. The only problem is Major League Baseball player Marcus Dillinger, the man she never meant to fall in love with. Neither Marcus nor Mary Catherine’s other friends—Tyler Ames and Sami Dawson—know just how serious her heart condition is.

Still, Marcus is sure in the depths of his soul that something isn’t right. Ultimately his correspondence with Mary Catherine leads him on a desperate life-or-death mission to rescue her and get her to a US hospital before time runs out. Meanwhile, Sami and Tyler struggle with issues of their own. In a season when Tyler plans to ask Sami to marry him, the very core of their relationship is in jeopardy.

The team of angels walking is busier than ever in this epic battle between life and death. A Brush of Wings is a poignant tale of love, sacrifice, and the power of faith. 

This is the third and final installment in the Angel Walking series. It was much anticipated and here we see all of the loose ends wrapped up. There are four angels dispatched from heaven to deal with the events they hope will set a birth in motion. They have been told in the first installment that Dallas Garner is a baby that will grow up to be a great teacher and greatly impact the world for good. The problem is that he hasn't been born yet . They must handle some of us earthlings carefully in order to see this baby get a chance at life. The going is sometimes very hairy as emotions and circumstances keep us on the edge of our seats and the angels have to intervene.

This wrapped up things nicely and finally tells us where this baby comes from in terms of parentage and why angels are needed in order to facilitate this occurring . There are lots of touch and go moments and secrets to keep us interested along the way. We learn a little more about the characters and their families and it gives us a window into the kinds of battles we may be assisted with each day by heavenly visitors. overall a good effort and a nice wrap up to a series. Well done.
