The Phenomenal Sunday Times and International Bestseller

'The world has discovered a modest mystic that it might do well to listen to' – Daily Mail


When she was a child, people wondered why Lorna Byrne didn't seem present in the world around her. They never knew she was seeing angels.

In her own words, Lorna tells the story of her life and the remarkable visions that have shaped it. Through her eyes, the reader meets creatures from the spirit worlds who, in our own world, watch over us and protect us - including angels of astonishing beauty and variety, the prophet Elijah, an Archangel, and even the spirits of people who have died.

Many of us have often felt like a guardian angel must be watching over us - but Lorna Byrne has seen them with her own eyes. This extraordinary document is the personal testimony of a woman who sees things that nobody else does. Lorna has looked past the range of our everyday experience, and this incredible book is our window to a world beyond.

Here's what Angels in My Hair has meant to Lorna's readers:

  • 'A wonderful book full of hope, love, positive energy and many happy thoughts'
  • 'Enlightening and inspiring'
  • 'An absolutely brilliant book, full of joy and inspiration'
  • 'Convincing and sincere'
  • 'She tells her story so simply, so truthfully. It feels like a conversation between friends'

'A solid gold sensation' – Daily Express

'A winner' – Sunday Times
