An Angel Whispers
There is rumor of a town in the Northeast that on a dark stormy night, ten years ago, witnessed what can only be described as a supernatural miracle. But no one outside of the town knows the true story.
So, Ben Jacobs, a cynical and emotionally distraught reporter goes to investigate the truth, with a secretive agenda of his own.
What he finds, are friends and family that are eager to impart their story and the mysterious truth that changed their town and its people forevermore.
But despite their impassioned and fantastical tale, the question remains as to whether Ben believes. And to do so, he'll be forced to reluctantly accept his profound role in a story that's very much only just begun.

2018 Bluecat Screenplay contest, reader feedback (highlights)
“Overall, “An Angel Whispers” is an uplifting story driven by mystery. Hidden details are carefully revealed as Ben meets each new character. Ben’s character arc is also well developed. At the beginning, he is skeptical of the whispering angel story, however, when he sees the photo and realizes Jimmy is Padre, he starts to become a believer, and seems to transform into the faithful writer the churchgoers need to tell their story. This arc adds depth and meaning to the story, creating a complex and round protagonist.”
