The Angel Maker by Alex North

2.0

What a mess. I went back to my Good Reads profile to ensure that I did indeed enjoy Alex North's two previous novels. There are too many points of view and poorly fleshed-out characters. I could not keep track of who was who and found myself wishing for an org chart. There are also time jumps, which didn't bother me as much as other things. The reader is left with many unanswered questions and trying to make tenuous connections about who did what and why. I can't be certain, but it seems like North caught Bill Paxton's excellent film Frailty and decided that a twist on that story would be a good idea for a book. He's not wrong, but this isn't that book.
