Publisher Description
In a world where money is measured in billions and success by the control one wields over entire nations, Jack Madson is back! Called upon to investigate a series of “case closed” suicides at Princeton University, the quiet
university town is rocked by the emergence of a serial killer forcing Madson to contemplate the unthinkable — a link between the suicides, murders, and a CIA “black ops” genetics engineering project carried out in laboratories eight stories beneath Forrestal Campus.
In Dark Angel, the third Jack Madson crime thriller, readers will encounter a Nazi geneticist, a billionaire serial killer, a renegade CIA operative, and a Hollywood starlet as deadly as she is beautiful; all participants in a horrifying project of staggering historical dimension: the creation of the Fourth Reich.

“Boldly original...a dizzyingly high level of intensity...Felber grabs you hook line and sinker!” —First Chapter Reviews
The “Jack Madson” trilogy includes:
A Man of Indeterminate Value, The Kafka Society and Dark Angel.
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
In Felber's overwrought third Jack Madson novel (after 2014's The Kafka Society), the San Francisco based macho adventurer wangles a job from a friend that takes him to Princeton University to look into the death of student Mary Linda Schumann. Princeton, N.J., police detectives Tommy Gifford and Don Donnolly walk Madson through the case and convince him that the 19-year-old girl committed suicide, but Ty Rollins, a local newspaper reporter, says the cops screwed up what should be a murder investigation. Princeton geneticist-virologist Marjorie Kurtz informs Madson that there are people at the university engaged in secret research based on work done by infamous Auschwitz doctor Josef Mengele; their goal is to create "genetically engineered soldiers." Soon hard-drinking, pill-popping Madson finds his worst nightmares coming true. The thin, fantastic plot pits Madson, a virtual pawn, against an array of powerful enemies. Readers should be prepared for a series of confrontations that are almost cartoonish in their extreme violence.
