• Angela first appears when she's being fitted for her wedding dress and notices smoke coming from the Westing house.
• She offers to help Turtle with her witch costume.
• At the first will reading, she's paired up with Sydelle.
• When everyone's snowbound, Angela and Sydelle meet with the other tenants, and then work on evaluating the clues they've gathered; they seem to have more than anyone else.
• At the judge's party, Angela doesn't wear her wedding ring – she says she's got a rash – and is humiliated by her mother when Grace makes her leave to go change her clothes.
• She goes into the kitchen and cries.
• She and Sydelle go to the heir meeting in the coffee shop, where the first bomb explodes.
• She and Turtle then squabble about a newspaper she borrowed, and Angela realizes Turtle depends on her braid the same way Sydelle depends on her crutch.
• The bomber sets off a second bomb.
• At dinner in the Chinese restaurant, Angela admits to Theo that she had wanted to be a doctor, but dropped out of school.
• When the second bomb goes off, Sydelle is injured and Angela is really worried.
• When Dr. Deere takes her to visit Sydelle in the hospital, he and Angela argue about whether she even wants to get married at all.
• The third bomb goes off during Angela's bridal shower: it's a present that explodes while she's opening it. She keeps Turtle from getting hurt by it, but it burns her hands and cuts her face.
• In the hospital, Turtle visits and reminds her of how she used to say inner beauty was more important than outer. Turtle also cautions her not to admit to the bombings.
• Meanwhile, Angela collects more clues from anonymous sources and from Chris.
• She and Sydelle work on figuring their clues out and come up with "America." From there, they figure out the clue, "Amber."
• But their answer's not right at the second will reading, just like all the other heirs' aren't.
• After the dust settles from the Westing game, Angela breaks up with Dr. Deere and goes back to college.
• Five years later, she's in the middle of med school and runs into Dr. Deere again. They start going back out.
• At the end of the book, she and Dr. Deere are married, and have a daughter, Alice.
