Mel gets "the call," a strange, out-of-body experience that tells Angel Academy students that they are ready for their first guardian angel module. At first, it seems like a suitably fluffy assignment: 1920s America, full of flappers and limos, jazz and silent movies. But Mel’s got her hands full when she has to look after Honesty Bloomfield, a sullen, withdrawn girl who is traveling across the country with her family. They are bound for Hollywood—but is it the city of dreams or nightmares?
