The Burning Question cover

'MASTERFULLY PLOTTED' WOMAN'S OWN

When an arson attack strikes in south London, leaving three people dead, it quickly becomes clear that the youngest victim, Danielle Low, was the intended target.

With no clear motive, and the killer at large, DCI Banham must act fast. But working with his partner, DI Alison Grainger, has its own challenges that threaten to stall the investigation. Then another body is found in similar circumstances and he knows that there is someone far more sinister at work.

As they begin to unravel a dark web of secrets, the case unexpectedly leads close to home and with time of the essence, and the killer always one step ahead, can DCI Banham and his team work together to put a stop to the depravity before another life is lost?

Set in the gritty backstreets of London, The Burning Question is the latest thrilling instalment in the DCI Banham series by the much-loved author and actress Linda Regan. For fans of Lynda La Plante and Martina Cole.

Entertaining stuff, but not for the faint-hearted
