Inspired by a string of teenage suicides, The Angel Within is about a young woman who attempts suicide, survives, and learns to reconnect with life, love, and hope.

Laura, Kellyn Lindsay, attempts to take her own life by crashing her small Cessna in the wilderness. Scott, Robert Nuzzie, lives in the wilderness to escape the ills of society and discovers Laura still alive with some cuts and a broken leg. As Scott cares for Laura and builds a raft to get Laura quickly to the nearest hospital, over 200 miles away, an impossible romance blossoms.—Robert Thayer
