Our favorite zombie Angel Crawford has come a long way
from her days as a pain-pill-addicted high school dropout with a felony record.
After a year highlighted by murder, kidnapping, and the loss of her home,
all she wants to do is kick back, relax, and maybe even think about college.
But when key members of the "Zombie Mafia" go missing,
she has no choice but to get involved.
Angel is certain Saberton Corporation is behind the disappearances,
yet she can’t shake the sense that a far deeper conspiracy is at work.
With the small band of friends she can trust,
Angel strikes out to track down the missing zombies.
From a seedy redneck bar in the backwoods of south Louisiana
to a high society cocktail party halfway across the country,
Angel claws her way through corporate intrigue, zombie drugs, and undead trafficking.
In no time at all she’s embroiled in kidnapping plots
and hostage negotiations—though for once she’s the one calling the felonious shots.
Add some breaking and entering, criminal damage,
and a wee bit of terrorism, and Angel’s up to her undead ears in the kind of trouble she excels at.
But when unexpected danger threatens to destroy her,
all the brains and bravado in the world may not be enough to keep her from going to pieces.
Angel Crawford, high school dropout, zombie, and morgue attendant, has a problem.
He zombie mafia colleagues are under attack by the Saberton Corporation,
who have managed to kill, kidnap, and discredit the core team.
Angel and friends must go to New York to fight the bad guys.
But Angel has never been that far from home.
Another rollicking episode of Educating Angel.
Here it’s her reaction to New York in general, and its subway in particular,
that provide the lighter moments.
There’s also the problem that more and more
“normal” people are finding out about the zombies.
And the final scene might indicate the resurrection of
an old problem that Angel thought had gone forever.
