What he finds out instead is that there are just as many crazies outside the walls of a cultist tower as there are inside. For reasons he doesn’t entirely understand, perhaps for the sake of having a purpose, Quinn begins a lurid quest to uncover the truth. Thing is, Quinn soon finds out, O’Gorman disappeared under bizarre circumstances several years ago. When one of the cultists asks Quinn to check on a man named Patrick O’Gorman and slides a not so small amount of money in his jacket, well, that’s just the sort of hand Quinn has been looking for. But a gambler has to play the hand he’s dealt. Quinn hitched a ride from Reno but never thought he’d end up in a place like this. I am glad to be able to recommend it highly. This is a well-written study of the human condition in addition to being a truly satisfying mystery. Belief versus doubt plays out in the town as well as in the commune. Life takes a turn from tragic to strange when Quinn finds himself on the doorsteps of a religious cult’s tower in the remote California hills. How Like An Angel is compelling, suspenseful novel that surprises as it depicts human motivation, obsession, love and hate. A security head for a casino in Reno just can’t afford to have a gambling problem.
