Angel rastrea el pasado del cantante en busca de una pista sobre su paradero y pronto se verá atrapado en una trama oprimente y peligrosa en la que el vudú y los ritos satánicos parecen jugar un papel relevante. «El ángel caído» se abre como una clásica novela negra de detectives y se va transformando gradualmente en un relato de horror sobrenatural de final memorable. En palabras de Stephen King: «Es como si Raymond Chandler hubiese escrito “El exorcista”».
