Angel on the Inside Summary

Angel on the Inside by Mike Ripley

So why is Angel trying to break into a prison? The trouble starts when Angel's wife Amy's ex-husband is re-arrested, having been released from prison only a month before. And some very seedy characters start taking a close interest in what the ex-husband was doing in between his release from prison and subsequent re-arrest for stalking Amy - but Amy's not talking. So it's up to Angel to find out why his wife is being so reticent and why another mystery person is so fascinated by the ex's movements - and the only way to do that is to discover what was going on in prison prior to his release. So Angel has to figure out how to break in; he doesn't know yet how he'll do it, only that it's going to be just like The Great Escape - only in reverse...

Angel on the Inside Reviews

- '... like fine malt whisky, Angel is high proof and totally addictive' - Jim Driver, Time Out - 'Three cheers for an exemplary hero who has never made an excuse and left. Ripley on rich and ribald form.' - Philip Oakes, Literary Review - 'Ripley is everything I hate in other writers. His plotting, characterisation, dialogue and scene setting are superb, and he is laugh aloud funny... I am insanely jealous.' - Rodney Wingfield - '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
