Angel: Soldiers, Spies & Saviours.

by Mike Claywood. (Adult Fiction)

SBN: 9781066966301

1970’s Trans-Genre Romantic Noir Thriller. Set against the bleak backdrop of mid-1970’s Norfolk, Angel follows a young man on the edge of thirty, Angelo Briton, now unemployed, restless, and searching for something more than empty nights, dead-end prospects, and the slow grind of a town left behind. With his best friend Terry, Angelo drifts through a world of casual distractions, computer programming, and the uneasy feeling that life is passing him by.

Drawn to a worthy cause, he joins a local Animal Liberation group but what begins as idealism soon turns unsettling when he discovers he is being watched. As suspicion closes in, he must question who is following him, what they want, and whether his intervention has only pulled him deeper into the previously unseen danger zone.

Through his Martial Arts, with its Taoist philosophy, and a struggle to live differently in a culture built on habit and compromise, Angelo searches for discipline, purpose, and the courage to face what is coming. But when shocking revelations force him into a corner, he must decide whether wisdom, friendship and sheer will are enough to help him break the chains.

Pre-Reviews: “A real page turner! An entertaining read, and there was enough raw sex in it to rival some of the more notorious love novels" DA

"The book started out in the le Carré fashion, very atmospheric in quality, and I thought it was going to evolve in a different direction, but in the story context, it works very well."

"An entertaining read, and there was enough raw sex in it to rival some of the more notorious love novels."
