Angel Underground

by Mike Ripley (Author)

Synopsis

Out of the blue Angel is contacted by his mother who is living a semi-bohemian life in darkest Suffolk. She is concerned about one of her neighbours who has decided to fund a private archaeological dig on his own farmland, convinced he will find the remains from Queen Boudicca's royal mint. There have been sinister accidents on site and several diggers have been attacked, so the Angel decides he must infiltrate the dig - only to discover it has already been infiltrated by individuals intent on finding a grave far more recent than the Iron Age...

Media Reviews
- 'High comedy quotient, splendid scams... but [don't] fail to notice what a seriously good writer Ripley is.' - Literary Review - 'Exuberant, laugh-aloud fun and cleverness... but there is in addition, an edge and an anger.' - Marcel Berlins, The Times - 'I never read Ripley on trains, planes or buses. He makes me laugh and it annoys the other passengers.' - Minette Walters
