On some days, New York is one of the most beautiful places on Earth. This was one of the other days....

Melody Malone, owner and sole employee of the Angel Detective Agency, has an unexpected caller. It's movie star Rock Railton, and he thinks someone is out to kill him. When he mentions the 'kiss of the Angel', she takes the case.

Angels are Melody's business....

At the press party for Railton's latest movie, studio owner Max Kliener invites Melody to the film set of their next blockbuster. He's obviously spotted her potential, and Melody is flattered when Kliener asks her to become a star. But the cost of fame, she'll soon discover, is greater than anyone could possibly imagine. Will Melody be able to escape Kliener's dastardly plan - before the Angels take Manhattan?

If you love Alex Kingston as River Song (what DW fan doesn’t?) you’ll love this! Alex brings River to life on the “page” just as she does on the screen.

River Song Fans Rejoice!

If you could sum up Doctor Who: The Angel's Kiss in three words, what would they be?

It was very refreshing having River tell the story. Though it is not the book that the Doctor was reading in the TV show Angels take Manhattan it is more of a prequel to it, I would love to see more books written from her prospective. All of the dates, where your curiosity is peeked but they never reveal the secret. I mean who wouldn't want to know more about Jimmy the Fish. It could be released as her journal of sorts. Without of course, allowing there to be to many spoilers to be released as to not ruin the tv show.

What did you like best about this story?

Her point of view. It was so sexy without being slutty. As the DR is very non sexual in most cases, some of his best parts are when he is in a sexual situation, it was very refreshing to see her so full of sexual energy and to use it to her advantage. Not saying this book as any sex in it because it doesn't but I can certainly see why the doctor said Yowzah while reading it!

What about Alex Kingston’s performance did you like?

She played it brilliantly as she always does. Again if more books written by River/Melody Alex should certainly be the one who reads them. Anyone else would just ruin it.

If you were to make a film of this book, what would be the tag line be?

To short to make a movie out of

Any additional comments?

I really do think that they should make more books along these lines. Let her finish out the angels bit ending with Rory and Amy being gone. Then start out a new adventure all of the fun things she does when she is with or without the doctor. We really do not see enough of the doctors wife on the TV show so it is nice to read more about her between shows.

One of my fav DR Who books!!

What an enjoyable telling of a well written, very interesting story.
River Song (Melody Malone) continues her work as a NYC Private Eye in this installment of the Melody Malone Mysteries. When a small movie company's male star comes to Melody to keep from being killed, Melody begins an investigation that goes from odd to bizarre when the star who hires her doesn't recall doing so...

Oh, River, River, River...
