Falling Angel by William Hjortsberg is a spellbinding novel that masterfully blends murder, mystery, and the occult. It follows the journey of Harry Angel, a tough New York private eye, whose routine missing-persons case spirals into a fiendish nightmare filled with voodoo, black magic, dizzying peril, and violent death. Often regarded as the greatest American supernatural horror novel of the 20th century, Falling Angel pits Angel against the most fearsome adversary a detective could ever face.
