Book excerpt: Edgar Award Finalist: The hunt for a vanished singer leads a detective into the depths of the occult in this “terrific” novel (Stephen King). Big-band frontman Johnny Favorite was singing for the troops when a Luftwaffe fighter squadron strafed the bandstand, killing the crowd and leaving the singer near death. The army returned him to a private hospital in upstate New York, leaving him to live out his days as a vegetable while the world forgot him. But Louis Cyphre never forgets. Cyphre had a contract with the singer, stipulating payment upon Johnny’s death—payment that will be denied as long as Johnny clings to life. When Cyphre hires private investigator Harry Angel to find Johnny at the hospital, Angel learns that the singer has disappeared. It is no ordinary missing-person’s case. Everyone he questions dies soon after, as Angel’s investigation ensnares him in a bizarre tangle of black magic, carnival freaks, and grisly voodoo. When the sinister Louis Cyphre begins appearing in Angel’s dreams, the detective fears for his life, his sanity, and his soul. Falling Angel was the basis for the Alan Parker film Angel Heart, starring Mickey Rourke, Robert De Niro, and Lisa Bonet.

Then their English teacher offers them a job on her mobile library, a three-wheel, two-seater bike. Angel can’t turn down the money and Isaiah is soon eager to be in such close quarters with Angel every afternoon. But life changes on May 31, 1921 when a vicious white mob storms the Black community of Greenwood, leaving the town destroyed and thousands of residents displaced.

The editor of the Megaphone had been guilty of many eccentric acts. He had expressed views on her drawing which she shivered to recall. He had aroused her in the middle of the night to sketch dresses at a fancy dress ball, but never before had he done anything so human as to send a taxi for her. Nevertheless, she would not look at the gift cab too closely, and she stepped into the warm interior. The windows were veiled with the snow and the sleet which had been falling all the time she had been in the theatre. She saw blurred lights flash past, and realised that the taxi was going at a good pace. She rubbed the windows and tried to look out after a while

Download or read book The Angel of Terror written by Boomland Classic Publisher and published by . This book was released on 2020-10-12 with total page 336 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We know early on in The Angel of Terror who is willing to cause mayhem and why, so the question is can the responsible parties be brought to justice? Because the main villain is cold-blooded, extremely cunning, and possesses a cleverly evil mind. Angel of Terror is not a very satisfying title, but it begins with excitement when James Meredith's death sentence is commuted to life in prison. The crime is the murder of Ferdinand Bulford, the reason for the jealousy of Bulford's behavior towards Jean Briggerland, Meredith's cousin and fiancée; it is remarkable how many couples in the novels of this era are engaged or marry their cousins. But I digress. Meredith's friend Jack Glover, Rennett, Glover, and Simpson's junior partner has vowed to prove Meredith's innocence when he attempts to kidnap orphan Lydia Beale, who works as a fashion illustrator for a newspaper. Miss Beale is in dire financial straits, having voluntarily taken on the task of paying off her late father's huge debts, and has been tormented by a constant procession of subpoenas against her as a result - seventy-five in both previous years. While they are taking her in a taxi from which she cannot escape, Glover and Rennett suddenly appear, rescue her and take her to Dulwich Grange, the home of senior partner Charles Rennett. There she is asked an astonishing question: would she be willing to marry Meredith, who is at large with the collusion of Glover and Bennett and is in the house? If she agrees, her husband will not bother her, she will be handed over and returned to prison, but she will receive £ 20,000 when the nuptials are done and £ 5,000 a year thereafter for the rest of her life. Meredith's reasons for wanting to go through such a marriage are strong, but it must take place the following Monday. Despite her financial difficulties, we have already learned that Miss Beale is not a gold digger, but a decent young woman, so the reader is not put off by her eventual agreement with the strange proposal. And so Meredith and Miss Beale are married the next morning at Rennett's residence. Moments later, Jean Briggerland appears out of nowhere, and then Meredith finds herself in the garden, an apparent suicide. Having made her will while in the house during the night, Miss Beale or rather Mrs. Meredith inherits her wealth but is in great danger as a consequence. Now it's the count-ho as the villains make one attempt after another to dispatch her.
