Review
Three cheers for an exemplary hero who has never made an excuse and left. Ripley on rich and ribald form (Literary Review)
Exuberant, laugh-aloud fun and cleverness... but there is in addition, an edge and an anger. (Marcel Berlins The Times)
.. like fine malt whisky, Angel is high proof and totally addictive (Time Out)

Farce of the highest calibre. (Guardian)
The outrageous, riproaring Mr Ripley is an abiding delight (Colin Dexter)
Book Description
When Angel gets a call from Werewolf, his old and disreputable friend, he finds himself reluctantly involved in tracking down a shipment of drugs mistakenly smuggled in from France. One the trail he encounters a heavy metal band, a young Dutchman, and the dangerous Lucinda L. Luger.
