About this series
Memoirs of an Undercover Angel
Book 3: Soul
The ‘Soul’ is the final battleground between Good and Evil. Jack will have to let go of shame and internalised homophobia to mend his broken wing.
5th Scroll: Bleue traverses through time and space to uncover themes of demonic possession as well as redemption. Under hypnosis Jack recalls an exorcism that has haunted his nightmares. Ellen gives her son her blessing, as Thomas and Jack decide to live together.
6th Scroll: Indigo grapples with the themes of shame, anointing and inner peace. Jack receives a metaphysical as well as supernatural healing for his Body, Mind, and Soul, but Jack does not feel worthy. Jack and Thomas decide on a trip through Europe, which ends in Sin City.
7th Scroll: Violette explores themes of healing, marriage and sacrifice. Jack has rediscovered his passion for life, and at his best friend’s wedding, Jack learns he wasn’t the only queer at high school. Jack discovers his Beanstalk, doing battle one last time with the Selfish Giant.
Although it tackles spiritual themes, this is not strictly a religious book. Its strength and power come from its sense of life’s fragility and personal vulnerability, as it describes elements of beauty, grounding this story in the everyday – simple aspects of life and love. It challenges the stereotypes within society, exposing the heartache of ‘forbidden’ love, as the simple act of falling in love as a gay man or woman! Memoirs of an Undercover Angel is a synergy of thematic genres: an unconventional love story fighting for equality and marriage parity, and yet one with the power for personal transformation.

- Memoirs of an Undercover Angel: Body
1
Memoirs of an Undercover Angel Book 1: Body The ‘Body’ has been demonised throughout history, but as a proud gay man Jack is about to claim it back! 1st Scroll: Rouge is grounded in the themes of sexuality, and coming out. Meet Jack Lamb, a young man in the throes of falling in love, but Jack must first embrace this new life or return to the ‘closet.’ Hopes and expectations are dashed during a dance party, as Jack learns the true meaning of Salvation, surrounded by all God’s beautiful Angels – and horny little Devils. 2nd Scroll: Orange covers themes of suicide and loss, regrets and fantasy. Jack learns of a family tragedy, and Carlos his ex-boyfriend is put behind bars. In desperation Jack contemplates suicide, before his younger sister comes to the rescue. A debaucherous ‘hen’s’ night out only fuels Jack’s repressed high school fantasies. Memoirs of an Undercover Angel is a work of fiction, based largely on the author’s personal experiences, and written from a gay Christian perspective. The story encompasses issues and incidents that many gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgender (GLBT) people will experience in their quest for selfhood, acceptance, spiritual peace and personal harmony. The quest is never an easy journey, but it is ultimately rewarding.
- Memoirs of an Undercover Angel: Mind
2
Memoirs of an Undercover Angel Book 2: Mind The ‘Mind’ can unlock a mystical door to freedom. Persecution and fear have ruled the lives of many gays and lesbians until now... Jack holds the key to restoring the balance. 3rd Scroll: Jaune develops around themes pertaining to intuition, hopes and thwarted dreams. Jack is a hopeless case, ruled predominantly by pride, fears, and ghosts from his past. Jack has resigned himself to the fact he will never marry, he will never have children, he will never be happy ... and yet travelling through Asia gives Jack a whole new perspective on life. 4th Scroll: Vert describes themes of temptation and forgiveness. Eva, Adam and Jack make for a complicated love triangle, and when Jack decides to leave home he leaves behind his love. Like the prodigal son, Jack is welcomed home once more and rediscovers his inner light – before being tempted by the devil yet again. The author’s basic aim for writing the book is so that the rainbow community enters into the fullness and knowledge of God’s unconditional love. His story is one of personal transformation, and it is hoped the tale will be a catalyst in the transformation of the reader’s life. The book will appeal to those interested in spiritual growth and a deeper understanding of life and love, especially those within the GLBT family worldwide.

Vaughan Shepherd
NOTES ON VAUGHAN SHEPHERD I am an aspiring architect, counsellor, teacher, preacher, artist and poet. I am also chairperson of Auckland Community Church (ACC), a non-denominational GLBT-affirming congregation. There is a growing movement of queer evangelicals and gay Christians worldwide, seeking to banish homophobia from religious and political conservatives. Our church supports this movement; we have a unique voice and a way of bridging a divide between conservative and liberal Christians. Although many liberal churches promote gay rights, our movement is uniquely ambitious: challenging conservative evangelism from within the faith, and showing that it is possible to be both queer and Christian.
