Publisher's Synopsis
Perfect for fans of James Sallis's Drive, James O'Barr's The Crow, Ed Brubaker & Sean Phillips' Criminal, and Frank Miller's Sin City - Hey Angel is a haunting, emotionally raw neo-noir: a bruising, poetic descent through grief, revenge, and broken love, stitched together with rage, tenderness, trauma, and the shadow of lost love.
"I check the shotgun, one in the chamber and four in the tube. Looking up to the sky, I take a deep breath and notice a few of the brighter stars, wondering at what point they look away, if they even can-now would be a good time."
Frank - disgraced soldier, former brothel bouncer, and self-proclaimed deadsh*t - wakes from a year-long coma with a fractured mind and flashes of the car crash that nearly killed him. Haunted by glimpses of that night - a violent wreck, the young couple Kurt and Ellie, the stolen lottery winnings, and his bleeding girlfriend Angel - he sets out on a brutal path of retribution.
Fueled by rage and memory, Frank embarks on a relentless hunt across shadowy streets and scarred landscapes in search of answers. What he finds will force him to confront not only the past but himself.
Prepare for a raw, hypnotic novella of blood, ghosts, and ruin - and a final confrontation that cuts deep into the heart of who we are when there's nothing left to lose.
