After Women without Name and Suburbs of Paradise, Silvestre Vilaplana completes with Angels of Death the trilogy of detective Araceli Lavila, three crime novels with a strong social denunciation that have corruption and abuses of power as a background.

Death seems to have taken over the streets of the city: the bodies of those involved in a video showing the rape of a minor begin to appear, one after another, just as a serial killer, allegedly inspired by God, is preparing to execute a mission as macabre as it is lethal. So journalist Roger Casafont and ex-policeman Araceli Lavila, despite being ill and retired, will be immersed in a crime wave that will test their resistance.
