There is no smoke without fire...
When a development in South London catches fire mid-construction, a close-knit team of fire fighters runs in to save a man spotted at the window.
They come out without a body. They quit the service. They plan never to speak to each other again.
Five years later one of them is set alight at his own wedding. Soon after, a second is found, nothing but a smoking corpse. It appears that someone knows what they did that night. What they chose over their duty. And there are still three men left to burn...
DI Alex Finn and his new partner DC Mattie Paulsen are an unlikely pairing, but they need to discover who is behind these killings before the next man faces the fire.
A brilliantly twisty and addictive crime thriller that will keep you guessing. Perfect for fans of Mark Billingham, M.J Arlidge and Simon McCleave.
Readers love The Burning Men:
'Reading this book felt like being on one hell of a scary and unpredictable rollercoaster ride with more twists and turns to the story than you would find on a Snakes & Ladders board. Just when you thought that the action had settled down, that you could reclaim your stomach, take a minute to catch your breath and gather your thoughts then off the action would go again... An amazing read' Reader review ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
