An angel is setting San Francisco afire. To destroy the fallen angels hiding on Earth, it will stop at nothing, no matter how many innocents have to die. Now two police detectives have discovered the terrifying truth behind this epidemic of unexplained fires. But how do you stop an angel?
This is a terrific novel. It explores so many avenues. But what makes it so good are the characters and the pacing. There's a great deal of humour here too, for a supernatural thiller, which helps to keep the tension. I don't understand the comments about San Francisco. This is an imaginary San Francisco, just as Ed McBain's 'New York' is imaginary. Surely the only people who would care are those who actually live there or know it well, which is a tiny fraction of world readers? This is a great 'story': that's what fiction is all about.
