Angel (Pocket)
3 primary works
Book 3
When their investigation agency books a client, Angel, Cordelia and Doyle couldn't be happier - Whitney Tyler is a beautiful actress. The trouble is that some viewers seem to think she is a real vampire and have made attempts on her life.
Book 9
Even the streetwise populace of Los Angeles is stunned when a priest is attacked by a woman who confesses to the murder of her own son. At the same time, Angel Investigations turns up reports of a madwoman who appears at gang fights, playgrounds and flophouses frequented by teenage runaways...She seems to be everywhere. She is a 'bruja' - a witch - and the living embodiment of La Llorona - the 'weeping woman' who plays such a central role in Spanish lore. Wherever she is, a trail of death follows her. The priest lapses into a coma. Doyle is wracked by visions of a young mother and her son in danger, down by the dockside. Cordelia finds herself on the trail of a film producer's missing wife. It is up to Angel to find the connection between them before he is stopped by the phantom whose touch brings death...and all of them are running out of time.
Book 12
A chance encounter with a roomful of portraits brings Angel face to face with a long-forgotten figure from his and Darla's past While Cordelia has a vision of a small child being attacked by a repulsive tentacled demon, Gunn goes to the rescue of a young artist whose studio is under threat from vampires. When Angel arrives on the scene, he is startled to find that the subjects of some of the portraits are known to him. Their memory is linked to an evening long ago that he and Darla spent in the company of a female storyteller and her poet husband - Mary and Percy Shelley. And Angel recalls a painter that Darla once favoured. How could the same artist still be alive today...? The mystery takes Angel back in time to the days when he and Darla roved across all of Europe, killing as they went. This time, though, his intention is very different - to save the life of a single innocent child.
