What the story delivers: Everyone remembers the shocking headlines about the Alperton Angels — a fringe cult that convinced a teenage mother her newborn was the anti-Christ, leading to a harrowing attempt on the child’s life and the cult’s subsequent mass suicide. Two decades later, the child is now an adult, and true‑crime author Amanda Bailey believes uncovering their story will reboot her stalled career. But Amanda isn’t the only one searching; rival author Oliver Menzies is equally determined and better connected. The hunt to find the Alperton baby becomes a tense, morally complex race where secrets refuse to stay buried.
