Description

"Deeply complex and carefully crafted, this novel is a thrilling question mark all the way to the end, and it puts North’s storytelling skills on full display.… The Angel Maker, his best so far, is a superb addition to his already impressive oeuvre."–NPR

From the New York Times bestselling author of The Whisper Man and The Shadows comes a dark, suspenseful new thriller about the mysteries of fate, the unbreakable bond of siblings, and a notorious serial killer who was said to know the future.


Growing up in a beautiful house in the English countryside, Katie Shaw lived a charmed life. At the cusp of graduation, she had big dreams, a devoted boyfriend, and a little brother she protected fiercely. Until the day a violent stranger changed the fate of her family forever.

Years later, still unable to live down the guilt surrounding what happened to her brother, Chris, and now with a child of her own to protect, Katie struggles to separate the real threats from the imagined. Then she gets the phone call: Chris has gone missing and needs his big sister once more.

Meanwhile, Detective Laurence Page is facing a particularly gruesome crime. A distinguished professor of fate and free will has been brutally murdered just hours after firing his staff. All the leads point back to two old cases: the gruesome attack on teenager Christopher Shaw, and the despicable crimes of a notorious serial killer who, legend had it, could see the future.

Another great read from Alex North!
The Angel Maker has it all - serial killer, philosophy, revenge, family dynamics all wrapped up in a tightly woven police drama/suspense novel.
I really can't say much without giving away major plot twists, but be sure to pay attention to everything.
It was a little confusing at first with the characters and how they relate to one another, but it all tied in at the end.
Highly recommend, especially if you liked The Whisper Man and The Shadows!

North nails it again with this nail-biter! This thriller features a stunning and well-built cast, and maybe even a bit of magic!
