Sommario/riassunto

The devolution of social care policy has led to key differences emerging between the UK's four care systems. This book presents research on the perspectives of social care policy makers within the UK's four care systems, concluding that when given equal capacity to reform, the systems in each nation may take radically different shapes.

Sommario/riassunto

El más allá no es tan bonito como parece para Lilith Adams, una adolescente de diecisiete años de edad. Además de odiar el hecho de estar en el Limbo, no quiere tener nada que ver con la guerra que se está llevando a cabo contra los discípulos de Lucifer. Una guerra que, de acuerdo a Lilith, no se relaciona en nada con ella. Para colmo de males está Gabriel, el arcángel que parece decidido a convertir su vida después de la muerte en un verdadero infierno.Entonces, cuando a Lilith le dan la oportunidad de regresar al momento justo antes de morir, no duda ni un segundo. Después se da cuenta de que sus actos tienen consecuencias devastadoras, no sólo para ella, sino también para Gabriel.Pluma de ángel es una novela sobre el destino y el amor, que llega cuando menos lo esperas o lo quieres, una novela con un toque diabólico al final. Pluma de ángel es la primera parte de la serie del Ejército celestial. La segunda parte, Sangre de ángel, está en venta desde el invierno de 2014.
