Flash Point

They call it the ‘flash point’ – where the fire ignites and it becomes a blaze that can’t be stopped. When you see that flash, you’d better hope nobody is nearby...When their neighbour’s shed goes up in flames, the residents of the housing estate all gather around. They don’t want to believe anyone was in there. But to the devastation of the parents of two teenagers, their children are found dead in the embers of the building, wrapped in one another’s arms.

DI Laura Henshall and DS Will Peters are called in to investigate. They believe it was a revenge attack gone wrong. But the fires continue to rage. And each flash, with each fire, with each tower of smoke above the Sheffield skies – makes the detectives realise they’re dealing with someone with a truly dangerous agenda...

Someone who will stop at nothing to make sure all their secrets are burned.

A dark, captivating thriller from bestselling author Anita Waller, perfect for fans of Tana French and Jane Harper.
