The Mysterious Case of the Alperton Angels by Janice Hallett

mysterious tense fast-paced

5.0

Anytime I start Janice's book, I know it'll be something I've never seen before. Her writing style is so different and the best part is that with every single book, just after finishing I wanted to read it again to see the book through the new lenses when everything unraveled! 

The Mysterious Case of the Alperton Angels has a cult (one of my fav themes!), two true crime journalists Amanda and Oliver chasing the same story, plot twists, surprises, red herrings and anything that makes you so engaged that you can forget about the outside world for a couple hours.

18 years ago a cult leader convinced two teenagers that there's an anti-Christ born and they need to kill it. Everything went wrong, the baby survived and now is finally an adult. The race to talk with them started. Amanda is a brilliant investigative journalist, she knows what she's doing, has her own contacts and strong intuition. Oliver is not as gifted, but with connections from his parents, he's not doing too badly. 
Their paths crossed in the past and now they like it or not, they're forced to work together. 

The places where this case will take them... the death toll, the mysterious coincidences... Mind blowing! 

And the writing style is something I absolutely adore. I'm always so curious what the author decided to do this time and what form she's going to play with. It's unique and I'm buying it 100%. 

If you haven't read the book yet, just buy it. Trust me.
