About this audiobook

As a veteran member of the Providence police department’s elite homicide squad, Detective Danny Martell has seen his fair share of dead bodies. But he’s never seen anything quite like this. Women around the city are being brutally murdered, their dead faces elaborately made up and fabric angel wings attached to their lifeless bodies. The attacks are immediately dubbed “the Angel Murders”—yet it doesn’t take long for the deadly crime wave to drag Danny into his own personal hell…

Because soon after the killings begin, Danny’s wife, Linda, abruptly disappears. And when his worst fears are realized, a grief-stricken Danny redoubles his efforts to hunt down the deranged serial killer. But is Linda just another random “angel”? Or is she the victim of a copycat killer with a vendetta against Danny?

Gritty, suspenseful, and fiendishly fascinating, this chilling whodunit will keep readers guessing right alongside Danny—and on the very edge of their seats until the final page is turned.

    Angel WingsByHoward KaminskyMy"in a nutshell" summary...OMG...what a great little book. Exciting, fun and filled with food descriptions of the Italian kind. This book took me by surprise...quite delightfully.Two detectives...Alex and Danny...wrapped up in a series of murders that make the victims appear to have wings. There are lots of other crimes occurring but the big one is this angel one. Also...Harry assumes he is happily married...but is he really? After his wife disappears and is found in a tragic way...the hunt for the killer gets even more intense.Short chapters, love interests, and this dark brooding killer all make this book a fun and intense reading experience.What I loved about this book...I loved the relationships with all of the characters...Captain Kitty and her beloved cats in the office...Danny and his food loving Italian family...the food descriptions...all made this book fun to read.I also knew from the start that something was just not right about Danny and Linda's relationship...hmmm...who did what to Linda will shock you...it did me!What I did not love...Unless I didn't get it...Danny fell in love with someone new awfully quickly.I hated that one of the Captain's kitties died.Final thoughts...If you want a fun quick mystery...I am thinking beach or pool...this is one to delight in! Plus it ended in a surprising way...a way that will have me searching for book 2!
