Angels in Arms by Mike Ripley

Can Angel's improvised cavalry save the day? When Angel gets a call from Werewolf, his old and disreputable friend, he finds himself reluctantly involved in tracking down a shipment of drugs mistakenly smuggled in from France. On the trail he encounters Werewolf's brother, a wolf in sheep's clothing if ever there was one; a second-rate but very loud heavy metal band; a young Dutchman who's as well armed as he is well dressed, and the mad, bad and definitely dangerous Lucinda L. Luger. And then he has to face the bad guys...
'Three cheers for an exemplary hero who has never made an excuse and leftRipley on rich and ribald form' - Literary Review; Exuberant, laugh-aloud fun and cleverness... but there is in addition, an edge and an anger.' - Marcel Berlins, The Times; '... like fine malt whisky, Angel is high proof and totally addictive'- Time Out; 'I never read Ripley on trains, planes or buses. He makes me laugh and it annoys the other passengers.'- Minette Walters; 'Farce of the highest calibre.'- Guardian; 'The outrageous, riproaring Mr Ripley is an abiding delight'- Colin Dexter
