Lauren Russell was 14. She was tall and thin with green eyes and waist length blond hair she wore in a braid down her back. She was the “new kid on the block.” Lauren and her widowed father, Alan Russell, lived in the Caretaker’s Cottage deep in the almond orchard across the street from the Sanders Ranch. After Lauren’s mother unexpectedly died from appendicitis, Lauren was uprooted and moved to her father’s hometown of Easton, California.
A lonely Lauren first spies on the Angels from behind the mailbox tree and when Aunt Marian invites her over for milk and cookies, she reaches out to the Angels and the Sanders family in her grief.
Lauren
befriends Jonathan Hardy and the Angels. With their collective help they
investigate a possible kidnapping in Easton. Lauren’s quick thinking helps defuse
some of the Angels’ (mostly Jason’s) sometimes outrageous plans and ideas.
Whether it was searching for the mysterious
green car, decorating for Halloween, studying with the Angels, or watching
helplessly when the boys are accused of destruction at school, Lauren becomes a
fast friend of the Easton Angels.
