Review: This is a quick and dirty crime story at only 88 pages. We get tossed right into the action with a young woman shooting her way out of a tight spot while musing on her fate and life choices so far. Bloodied and beaten, she makes it to a payphone and calls her father. Who is her father? A killer to be feared.

We then move to a larger chunk of the book which provides us with backstory and context. We learn who her father is and how he started teaching her the job when she was way too young to be participating in this cartel version of take your daughter to work day. We’ll eventually get to the events that took place before the book's opening.

When Angela’s father arrives will they be able to work through their issues and histories? Will they cement they’re rediscovered bond by exacting a trail of vengeance? You're damn right they will. Only then can Angela become Angel, an angel of death.
