"An engrossing, haunting story... reminiscent of classic espionage traditions." — Kirkus Reviews

"The author has a clear talent for rendering action sequences, dialogue, and description. The story unfolds at a steady pace, holding the reader's interest, and his storytelling abilities are top-notch. He does a superb job creating a unique scenario in a creative captivating way." -Publishers Weekly

I am the author of Missing Pieces: a Novel of the Balkans, a historical suspense novel set in 1998 Croatia. My novel was a Semi-Finalist in the 2019 Publishers Weekly BookLife Prize for Fiction,

Another of my novels, Between the Sword and the Wall: a novel of WW I, is set in 1914-15 during a period in World War I when it seemed the fighting would never end.

The Historical Novel Society said of my novel, "In only a little more than 100 pages, De Angelo manages to create as richly believable an atmosphere of WWI-era German-occupied Belgium as many novels have failed to do at three times the length.--Historical Novel Society
