Lost Angel
On sale
12th April 2012
Price: £12.99
It’s a world where crime is almost respectable – until passion ignites a disaster.
Things start going wrong the day Johnny Conroy meets Ruth Hynes. He just wants to show his mates that he can pull hard-man Frankie Hynes‘ daughter, but before he knows it he is part of the Hynes family. And the Hynes family business, which is stealing cars. And there is no way he is ever going to get out of the marriage or the business alive . . .
The only good thing in their hellhole of a marriage is his daughter Angel, as nice as her name is and as innocent. And the only thing keeping Johnny sane is his secret life.
But then Angel grows up and meets Johnny’s new employee Ryan. He loves Angel – but the family secrets involve him, too. And they are about to explode.

'A glamorous nightclub hides a seedy underworld that Heller knows only too well.'
Cracking page-turner . . . a gritty compassionate account of life on the margins.
Gripping . . . powerful writing.
'One of the bad girls of gritty crime, Heller has written a blinder.'
A hectic pace . . . will please fans of Martina Cole.
Mandasue has played a real blinder with this fantastic novel.
LOST ANGEL is a shining example of the rule that the best crime fiction isn't just about crime; it's also about family, relationships, love . . . and hate. From The Godfather to The Sopranos, these are the stories that grip us most intensely. And Heller is at the top of her game with this one--it's captivating from first page to last.
'A cracking read that will chill you to the bone.'
