ABOUT THE BOOK

An outstanding, spellbinding novel of murder, mystery and the occult, Falling Angel pits a tough New York private eye, Harry Angel against the most fearsome adversary a detective ever faced - one Louis Cyphre. For Angel a routine missing-persons case turns into a fiendish nightmare of voodoo and black magic, of dizzying peril and violent death - a world in which the shadow he chases seems to be the shadow he casts.

CRITICAL ACCLAIM

'A terrific book...I've never read anything remotely like it. Trying to imagine what might have happened if Raymond Chandler had written the Exorcist is as close as I can come.' - Stephen King

'A sort of ultimate detective story...it is one breathless read in high paced prose' - Thomas Keneally

'Brilliant and frightening' - Thomas McGuane

'A spellbinding adventure in suspense that rollercoasters the reader towards an ending that is the equivalent of hitting a brick wall at 90 m.p.h. This is a book that you don't walk away from' - Richard Brautigan

'Masterfully shocking' - London Observer
