Lizzy. To the women at Angel Silk, she's the strong queen bee, mother to the girls. But she's hiding her own dark secrets - and if they come to light, her life could be destroyed.

Jade. The newest dancer at Angel Silk, she's innocent, beautiful... and trapped. She's in over her head - but does she have the strength to break free?

Three women, all under the control of feared gangster, Marcus. To take back their lives, they need to come together. But will he let them go - or will finding freedom mean paying the ultimate price?



A gripping read that got under my skin. Alex Kane writes one hell of a villain.

Gemma Rogers, author of Stalker and Reckless



The Angels is a dark and sinister story that made for some uncomfortable reading. The author doesn’t go into any great detail in what these women have to endure which I was grateful for. From what we are given, it is more than enough to send your imagination into over drive. There are some shocking surprises in store as certain things come to light, of which a couple left me reeling. A powerful, hard hitting storyline that left me with goosebumps.
