Synopsis

The chilling sequel to the international bestselling novel The Woman in Black 
 
It’s Autumn of 1940, and German bombs are destroying the cities of Britain as WWII takes its toll on Europe. In London, children are being removed from their families and taken to the country for safety. Teacher Eve Parkins is in charge of one such group, and her destination is an empty and desolate house that appears to be sinking into the tidal marshes that surround it.
 
Its name is Eel Marsh House.
 
Far from home and with no alternative, Eve and the children move in. But it soon becomes apparent that there is someone else in the house; someone who is far deadlier than anything that would face the children in the city. She’s called “The Woman in Black,” and she won’t rest until she has her revenge …

I went in to this one with admittedly low expectations. I often find movie adaptations to be quickly made and of low quality. But I was very surprised with this one. Really enjoyed the writing style, very well paced and the horror scenes were described brilliantly. The characters were well fleshed o......more

Goodreads review by Jonathan on December 08, 2013

I didn't have high hopes going in. After all, this is a novelisation of the forthcoming movie sequel to Hammer's The Woman in Black, rather than a genuine sequel to the original book by Susan Hill. But as TWIB is one of my favourite books, and the first film was commendable, I had to give it a stab.......more

Goodreads review by Georgie on February 26, 2014

I really enjoyed this book, though it scared the hell out of me even reading it in the middle of the day with sunlight streaming through the window. 'Angel of Death' is set in the autumn of 1940. Eve Parkins is a young teacher who accompanies a small group of children along with their headmistress t......more

Goodreads review by BestChickLit.com on January 15, 2014

Angel of Death, the follow up to Susan Hill’s hugely popular Woman in Black, is, as I understand it, the book version of the screenplay. Set during the evacuation period of the blitz, the action begins quite quickly as a group of young children and their two teachers are sent to take ‘refuge’ in Eel......more


Quotes

"The Woman in Black is back, and she is just as terrifying in this sequel as she was in Susan Hill's creepy classic. . . . Brilliantly claustrophobic and utterly chilling, Angel of Death is genuinely jump-out-of-your-seat frightening." --Daily Mail
