Author Blends Los Angeles Urban Legend with Dark Gritty Fiction in New Novel
LOS ANGELES, CA., May 1, 2012 — In his new novel, Under Angels, author Jace Daniel pulls readers through a labyrinth of ghostly storytelling that includes Los Angeles history, UFOs, anagrams, the K-9 Command Unit, WWII cryptography, love, tragedy, suicide, and second chances.
Crossword puzzle enthusiast Pete Durante is a war dog trainer stationed near the Los Angeles Harbor during World War II. After he cracks an enemy code that helps end the war and saves millions of lives, he gets driven to suicide by a vengeful intelligence officer named Rip Greamer. To save his family from an even darker fate, Pete must follow his dog beyond the grave and into a purgatorial maze of tunnels beneath Los Angeles to solve one final puzzle.

— “A dark, gritty ride through the twisted world of a man in love.”
