I liked how Nightingale is planning to retire, now that he has Peter to take his place leading the Folly. I liked the development in the recurring characters. I would have liked if the coppers got a chance to interview her so we got more from her perspective. We never really got the chance to speak with her, for more than a few seconds. If I were to critique this a bit, I'd say that the primary antagonist needed to be fleshed out some more. I liked how the book reflecting back on history helped add depth to the story. The mystery was interesting, going back to the Reconquista, and then WW2, and forward to Manchester in the modern day. I liked the twist of the Angel being a tool of the Spanish Inquisition. This was a story where the Folly team has to hunt down a murderer Angel of Death.
