Angela Valdes, portrayed by Lela Loren,[4] is a fictional character from the Starz original television drama series Power. She was a Latina federal prosecutor[5] whose goal and mission was to solve the mystery behind the infamous "Ghost"[6] until she realized she had been in love with him the entire time.[7]

Valdes was caught in a crossfire and took a bullet for her lover James 'Ghost' St. Patrick (Omari Hardwick). She was mistakenly murdered by Tommy Egan (Joseph Sikora)[8] after Egan found out Ghost was working with Valdes to put him away for the murder of his father Tony Teresi (William Sadler).[9]

Angela, Tommy and James grew up together in Jamaica, Queens and attended the same school where she dated the latter, James. However, she moved abroad for 18 years to further her studies which resulted in cutting all ties with James until she found her way back to him in New York.[10]
