Publisher's Summary
Sunday Times best-selling author Stephen Leather's latest edge-of-your-seat thriller.
A standalone thriller from Sunday Times best-selling author Stephen Leather that takes us into the world of the London Fire Brigade's elite Investigations Unit.
Vicky Lewis is a force to be reckoned with: not yet 30 and already Crew Manager in the London Fire Brigade, she's destined for great things. But when she enters a burning building to save a man's life and leaves it with catastrophic injuries, all that changes. She's shunted over to the Fire Investigation Unit, where she's forced to team up with cantankerous veteran Des Farmer, aka the Grouch. When Vicky stumbles across the Grouch's off-the-books investigation into the fiery deaths of a series of young, blonde women, she decides to join him in his search for the truth.
The answer is close - perhaps too close. Vicky's already been burnt once, and now she's playing with fire....

An enjoyable read, but lacking Leather’s usual technique of a back story and so easy to predict the outcome.
This is a straightforward novel, in which th main character seeks to return to her role as a fire fighter after a serious accident. Male chauvinism is woven into the plot, and events take on a voyeuristic turn as the plot evolves. Like other reviewers, I was able to solve the “whodunnit” aspect early, and finished the book feeling disappointed. Bea Holland as narrator did a fine job of interpreting all of the characters.
