Angel's Watch is a story about Australia's changing social landscape. The book is a must-read for readers fascinated by the postwar generation, sibling dynamics, growing up with religious repression and the challenge of breaking free from family constraints.

Despite a lifetime of narrow-minded conservatism, the story is optimistic as honesty and family bonds emerge. Freedom is possible. There is a positive and surprising ending. An angel is watching over the family.
