Synopsis

Angels Unaware is the thrilling, hilarious fifteenth and final entry in best-selling British author Mike Ripley’s acclaimed series of comic crime novels featuring his most celebrated creation, streetwise chancer Fitzroy Maclean Angel.

Now reluctantly working for Rudgard & Blugden Confidential Investigations, a previously all-female private detective agency, Angel takes on what at first appears to be a routine missing persons case for an old acquaintance. Soon, though, he finds himself getting caught up in a complex web of crime involving a Polish-born porn star, an East-European people-trafficking business and a motorbike-riding homicidal maniac – not to mention having to cope with his increasingly testing family responsibilities, including his newfound status as a father …

This Telos Publishing reissue – the first since the novel’s original hardback publication in 2008 – comes complete with a new, specially-written introduction by the author.

‘Pedigree gags, an audacious plot and the supreme pleasure of hearing an unmistakeable master tell the tale’ – Literary Review.

‘As hilarious and outrageous as ever, fully justifying Ripley’s tag as “England’s funniest crime writer”.’ – Birmingham Post.

‘Downright funny. Long live the Ripster!’ – Deadly Pleasures.
