A chance encounter – in a pub, of course – lands streetwise, cab-driving Angel the ideal job as an all-purpose assistant to a trio of sexy young women running their own fashion business. But things are nowhere near as straightforward as they should be, and it soon becomes apparent that no-one is telling the truth – least of all Angel! Double-cross turns to triple-cross, and Angel finds himself set up by friend and enemy alike. This time, Angel could really have met his match …
This edition, published to celebrate the Angel series’ 25th Anniversary in August 2013, also includes the bonus Angel and Lord Peter Wimsey short story ‘Lord Peter and the Butterboy’, unseen in print since its sole previous publication in 1991.
‘The coppers’ badinage is truly priceless, and, with Angel as a guide, lowlife London has never been a more seductive proposition.’ - Publishers’ Weekly
‘I never read Ripley on trains, planes or buses. He makes me laugh, and it annoys the other passengers.’ - Minette Walters
