at Florida International University, Miami, FL, and is an Honor Graduate of the Defense Language Institute’s Korean

According to the book description of
Child Finder, it “gets its inspiration from Angley’s long, multifaceted career where
he was able to experience the full gamut of felony-level criminal investigations, as well as dangerous counterintelligence
and counterterrorism operations around the world. His second novel, Child Finder: Resurrection will debut
in the fall, 2009, followed by the third story in the trilogy, Child Finder: Revelation in late 2010.
Child Finder, the debut novel by Colonel Michael “Mike” Angley (USAF,
ret), launches his new mystery/suspense thriller trilogy. Angley introduces a protagonist as tough as 24’s
Jack Bauer, but with the endearing, family-values heart of 7th Heaven’s Eric Camden—Special Agent Patrick S. O’Donnell…an
early-thirties Air Force Major assigned to the Pentagon when the 9/11 terrorist attacks take place. His
haunting dreams about missing children reveal a hidden psychic gift which the government eagerly exploits, drawing him into
a TOP SECRET program to find abducted kids. But to make matters complicated, Uncle Sam has other ideas
in mind for his unique paranormal talents…after all, there is a War on Terror underway. One thing’s for sure—ever
since joining this new, secret community, he is surrounded by murder, and the very real threat of harm to his own family!
O’Donnell is a man of deep faith and is a loving and devoted husband and
father. He must make tough ethical choices in order to balance his desire to rescue children with what
he knows to be right and wrong when it comes to what the government expects him to do. And all the while
he threads through this murky moral morass, he must solve the murders that occurred because of him, while protecting his family
who have become trapped in a twisted web of government intrigue.”
On reader of
Child Finder said, “I received a tip about Mike Angley's new
book Child Finder. I contacted the Author and received a signed and numbered book. I started reading and
could not put it down! Thrilling, entertaining, and mystery are all built into this story. I was not disappointed. If anything
I was amazed at how quick it caught me and didn't let go. I am on the look out for the next release. It was a thrill ride
from the beginning and I expect the ride to continue.”
On reader of Child Finder
said, “Child Finder is a gripping tale that combines the psychic world with the oft-times political world in which law
enforcement agencies battle over turf at the expense of innocents. Angley's ability to give the reader a behind the scenes
look at what happens behind closed government doors is an eye opener. His character development is superb, from the protagonist
to the most obscure bit player. I thoroughly enjoyed this thriller. He had me on the edge of my seat at several junctures,
causing me to read on and on. I look forward to the follow-up in the series.”
