The life of Kieran Sheridan LeFanu, a young Dublin advertising agency director, is abruptly upended when he is the sole survivor of a gruesome car crash. In the aftermath, he develops a form of Cotard’s Syndrome, the belief that he is dead and possibly experiencing the drawn-out delirium of a mind hovering between consciousness and extinction.

He meets and loves the enchanting and enigmatic Aoife and struggles to differentiate between memory, fantasy, and reality, with bizarre and inexplicable encounters where he is attacked by strangers, pursued by a vicious stalker and transported to a haunting afterlife dimension. In a final showdown, he faces real and paranormal foes and is given an astounding revelation.

LeFanu’s Angel is a novel full of excitement, mystery and the unexpected. It is a literary delight set in historic and contemporary Dublin, with its vibrant business and social life, and hidden underworld of vice and crime.

'Keogh does an excellent job of both channelling/mocking the Irish Gothic novel tradition, telling a good story of good (relatively) versus evil, showing the corruption and dark side of modern-day Ireland and keeping us guessing to the end where it is all going to end up.’
John Alvey in The Modern Novel

‘Most importantly, Keogh tells a good story - both at the level of the individual episodes as well as the larger stories - and tells them well, making for a thoroughly engaging novel and enjoyable read.' M.A. Orthofer in The Complete Review
