Lying in the Extreme Care Room of a hospital, a man overhears a conversation between a dying woman and an angel. It's an uplifting discussion of religion versus spirituality, the nature of God and His relationship with mankind, and the need to find one's own path to him. It is written in crisp, expressive prose, presented in an accessible question-and-answer format. The views on religion, faith and Man's purpose are articulated with a warm authenticity that rings with the clarity of truth that will edify and solace readers in search of greater meaning in their lives.

About the Author
Mr. Clarke has traveled the world since he was a young boy. At first, with his divorced mom, who was an intimate night club singer and show room entertainer, and rarely spent more than a few months at each "gig" in various cities; then in his twenties, as an ex-pat bar owner in Asia and Micronesia. While living in Asia, Logan wrote his first book titled "Just Passing Through", which became a best seller.
Learning that his mother had terminal cancer, Logan returned to America at age 27. After her passing, he settled in California in 1977. Leaving behind his writing, Logan began his career as a Private Investigator. A career which has spanned twenty-plus years and brought Mr. Clarke considerable notoriety in books, magazines and newspapers throughout the world. The BBC and A&E television produced one hour documentaries on Logan and his agency. In 1994 Newsweek magazine said of Mr. Clarke, "Sam Spade and Logan Clarke aside, most private investigators really don't spend their days solving high profile murders."
In a letter to the publisher, Logan described the reason for his recent return to his writing:
"For the past twenty years I have traveled the world as an International Detective and head of a Crisis Intervention Team Task Force. We have chased bad guys and gone undercover in countries as remote as Yemen and as majestic as Monaco. During these cases, and over the years, agents have been thrown in jail in third world countries, been wounded in the field and even a few have been killed. Without going into detail, I can assure you that each member of my team ponders his or her fate on a regular basis. Late at night in a foreign country, we will often contemplate the good and evil in the world and reflect on the purpose or cause of it all. Matters of the heart...
Over the past four or five years, my wife and daughter have been asking me to "slow down" and let the younger agents "go to the front line." Of course, I never got around to slowing down. Then two years ago, I was home for the Christmas holidays and involved in a freak, but serious accident. The incident landed me in the hospital and put an abrupt halt to my globe trotting for over a year, while I convalesced at home. What happened to me during my short stay in the hospital dramatically affected not only my life, but that of my family; not due to the physical damage to my body, but because of the spiritual enlightenment that occured. The sheer magnitude of the experience that night and the next morning, compelled my daughter and me to write this book.
After traveling the world for some forty years, in walks of life from the prince to the pauper, I believe in all my heart that there are multitudes of souls out there who yearn for the answers to the same questions that were asked in the hospital room that night."

LAST NIGHT AN ANGEL STOPPED BY,
By DIANE GALLAGHER (LAKE ARROWHEAD, CALIFORNIA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Last Night an Angel Stopped By (Paperback)
"LAST NIGHT AN ANGEL STOPPED BY" WAS THE MOST INSPIRING, UPLIFTING BOOK I HAVE EVER READ. I WOULD RECOMMEND IT FOR ALL AGES. AS A CHILD, I GREW UP IN TENNESSEE, AND I WAS A SOUTHERN BAPTIST. AS I GREW UP I REALIZED THAT I DID NOT HAVE TO GO TO CHURCH IN ORDER TO KNOW GOD. I HAVE A BROTHER IN TENNESSEE, WHO IS A MINISTER, AND CONDEMS ME AND ANYONE ELSE, TO HELL, WHO DOES NOT ATTEND HIS CHURCH, AND ESPECIALLY IF ONE DOES NOT SPEAK IN TONGUES. THIS BOOK PROVES TO ME THAT I HAVE BEEN RIGHT WITH GOD ALL ALONG. THANK YOU LOGAN AND DARNELL.I KNOW THE AUTHORS OF THIS BOOK, AND CONSIDER THEM MEMBERS OF MY FAMILY. DONA, THE MOTHER OF DARNELL, AND THE WIFE ON LOGAN, I KNOW HAD TO BE APART OF THIS EFFORT. I APPLAUD THEM! THANK YOU LOGAN AND DARNELL FOR MY SIGNED COPY. I WILL READ AND REREAD, AND TREASURE IT FOREVER.
