Heaven Must Wait

Product Description Starring Andrew McCarthy (Weekend at Bernie's, Lipstick Jungle, Spiderwick Chronicles) as Raymond, Louise Lombard (CSI) as Rachel, Max Dolbey (The Musketeer) as Diggity, Heaven Must Wait is a touching tale of love and redemption. Raymond is the family black sheep. He's lost his job, his apartment, and all his confidence until word comes that he has inherited an English countryside property. Raymond soon discovers his inheritance is no manor house, but a small, crumbling stone church that's the center of a scheme by the village scrooge, Malcolm Slee, in his frantic search for a valuable chest of gold hidden in the village by King Charles. Raymond initially accepts Slee's offer to purchase the church, but has second thoughts when he learns from the local Bed & Breakfast owner Rachel that a family with children lives on the property. As Raymond and Rachel begin to bond, Raymond is singled out by a mysterious young orphan named Diggity, who believes that if he helps Raymond find his way in life, he will earn his wings as an angel.
