The Good, the Bad and the Beast - Tamas Garam - Bog

Ever since she was a child Angela knew she was different from other people. Growing up in a village in Hungary called Úrkút with her mother and father, the girl was haunted by peculiar visions and found herself in situations that were often unexplainable. Warned by her parents to stop indulging in her fantasies after a particularly harrowing night, Angela spends the rest of her adolescence not questioning the meaning of these odd, half-remembered memories of her 'supernatural' childhood - that is, until she unknowingly breathes life back into her friend after an accident at a party. Catapulted into fame, the seventeen year old becomes an international sensation, invited across the globe to give talks and discuss the miracle that happened at the party. However not everyone is viewing the situation with good intentions, and Ennio Marino, an Archbishop and leader of a religious cult, The Order of the People, posing as a well-respected charity in Rome, takes notice of her too. Managing to ensnare the teenager, Angela soon realises that it's more than her life that hangs in the balance as she attempts to escape this organisation built on ideals of rape and murder, all carried out in the shadow of the cross. A cross-cultural tale of corruption, crime and survival, Tamas Garam's epic new novel, The Good, The Bad and The Beast is home to a haunting supernatural adventure story, where danger lurks on every corner and nobody can be trusted.
