Overview

Based on Real Life Experiences... Follow the Paranormal Adventures of an Air Force Special Agent as the Government Exploits His Psychic Abilities to Rescue Abducted Children In this first story in the Child Finder Trilogy, Major Patrick O’Donnell, an Air Force Special Agent assigned to the Pentagon, begins experiencing haunting nightmares about children who have been abducted and murdered—before their bodies are found. It quickly becomes apparent that he has a special psychic gift that the government is all too eager to exploit.

He is drawn into a TOP SECRET black world community overseen by the FBI that leverages his skills to solve child abductions. Soon Pat discovers that this black world has an even darker underbelly when those close to him begin to die mysteriously.

Pat is Irish-Catholic, and he must draw upon his faith and values to sustain and guide him as he faces tough ethical decisions, challenges to his marriage, and the very real threat of harm to his own children…all because of his work.

The Story Continues in The Child Finder Trilogy…

Agent Pat O’Donnell’s adventures are not over yet! Be sure to follow his story as suspense builds in the forthcoming second and third novels in the trilogy, Child Finder: Resurrection and Child Finder: Revelation…coming Fall 2009.

Rescuing abducted children is a noble pursuit, but it comes at great cost. Pat must battle dark, murderous forces within his own trusted inner circle, as well as unimaginable evil that threatens his family. Before his journey ends Agent O’Donnell will learn explosive government information that will rock his understanding of life, the universe, and his own faith. Perhaps some secrets are best kept hidden . . . Colonel Michael “Mike” Angley, USAF (ret)enjoyed a rewarding 25-year career as a Special Agent with the Air Force Office of Special Investigations (OSI). He is a seasoned criminal investigator and a counterintelligence and counterterrorism specialist. He received extensive training in Undercover Operations and Informant Management, and early in his career performed undercover work for the Air Force. Mike explains how this background has shaped his writing: “Child Finder gets its inspiration from my life’s experiences. In particular, every single crime I investigated involving child victims literally broke my heart. The Child Finder Trilogy in some respects has given me an outlet to express that emotion, while weaving a few intriguing suspense tales along the way!”

About the Author

Colonel Michael “Mike” Angley is author of the Child Finder Trilogy. He retired from the U.S. Air Force in September 2007 following a rewarding 25 year career as a Special Agent with the Air Force Office of Special Investigations (OSI). He held thirteen different assignments throughout the world, among which were five tours as a Commander of various units, to include two Air Force OSI Squadrons and a Wing. Mike is a seasoned criminal investigator and a counterintelligence and counterterrorism specialist. Following the 1996 Khobar Towers terrorist attack in Saudi Arabia, he was dispatched to command all OSI units throughout the Middle East, with responsibility for 23 countries. During his tenure, he and his teams effectively neutralized numerous terrorist threats to U.S. forces in the region, to include an imminent threat to senior Department of Defense officials. Earlier in his career, while commanding an OSI unit in northern Japan, Mike conducted an operation that effectively blocked a KGB agent’s efforts to steal critical U.S. technology, and thereby stymied Soviet military advances for years. In 1999 he was Chief of Counterintelligence within the Directorate of Intelligence, U.S. Strategic Command. His office competed for the prestigious Killian Award, a White House level honor that annually recognizes the very best intelligence unit in the entire U.S. government. His unit came in as first runner-up for this significant honor. Mike has an M.A. in National Security Affairs from the U.S. Naval Postgraduate School, Monterey, CA, and a B.A. in Criminal Justice and Psychology from King’s College, Wilkes-Barre, PA. He is a former National Defense Fellow and Adjunct Professor of International Relations at Florida International University, Miami, FL, and is an Honor Graduate of the Defense Language Institute’s Korean language program. Mike and Evelyn, his wife of 24 years, make their home in Colorado Springs, Colorado. They have three children, and a rambunctious beagle named Brynn
