The Angelmaker

Eccentric and brilliant, the celebrated political economist Max Rosen, remained a mystery to family and friends. Upon his death, his grandson discovers that this great champion of rationality secretly sought wisdom from dialogues with angels. To unravel the enigma of his grandfather's haunting vision he must find his way through a maze of bitter academic politics and grim family secrets and, in the end, find himself.
After Sea of Light, Miguel Ball continues his exploration of modern mysticism. The Angelmaker blends Darwinism and Genesis into a startling vision of an extraordinary mind and a dark, tragic mystery of love and death.
