A missing teenager, a severely beaten taxi driver, a father, an estranged wife, cops, and a delusional pilot. Set in Boston and New Hampshire in 1980. John Dawes wakes up to discover that his seventeen year old daughter, Angela, did not come home from work the previous night. During the same night a cab driver is found, badly beaten, not far from the Dawes home. The police investigation into the taxi driver’s beating and the disappearance of the young woman seem to converge when they learn that she was the last person known to have ridden in his cab. As Dawes searches for his daughter, he finds himself inquiring into her life and discovers someone he barely knows - no longer the little girl that he had raised and nurtured, but a very interesting and talented young woman. Angela finds herself under the control of someone with rigid rules, irrational outbursts and hallucination-inspired expectations of her, as she fights to overcome her fear and find a way out. Angel Play is a story of losing and finding and finding out, filled with suspense and humanity.
