THE SCORCHING SUNDAY TIMES no.1 BESTSELLER FROM THE AUTHOR OF THE GIRL ON THE TRAIN

Penguin presents the audio edition of A Slow Fire Burning, read by Rosamund Pike.

'What is wrong with you?'

Laura has spent most of her life being judged. She's seen as hot-tempered, troubled, a loner. Some even call her dangerous.

Miriam knows that just because Laura is witnessed leaving the scene of a horrific murder with blood on her clothes, that doesn't mean she's a killer. Bitter experience has taught her how easy it is to get caught in the wrong place at the wrong time.

Carla is reeling from the brutal murder of her nephew. She trusts no one: good people are capable of terrible deeds. But how far will she go to find peace?

Innocent or guilty, everyone is damaged. Some are damaged enough to kill.

Look what you started.

'Shocking, moving, full of heart . . . A Slow Fire Burning shows a writer at the height of her powers.' Observer (Thriller of the Month)

'Superbly told, its twists and turns reveal the slow fire burning inside each which might just destroy them. Utterly compelling.' Daily Mail

'Fast-paced, highly charged and carried off with so much confidence that it is impossible to resist.'
Sunday Times

I loved both the plot of the novel and the narration by Rosamund Pike. I really liked the other two mystery novels by Paula Hawkins and had to read this one too. I am glad I found the audiobook here. Thank you, Audible.

Another great mystery novel from the author.

The characters backstories are quite similar to the girl on the train and ending not very convincing. There are too many storyline for too many people to follow

Repetitive Storytelling

Not half as gripping as her first Girl on The Train but also much better than Into The Water.
The ending was predictable to me but I enjoyed getting there. Although I think I would have not enjoyed reading it as much as I enjoyed Rosamund Pikes absolutely perfect narration. Any book she narrates is elevated, made infinitely better.

Easy mystery, great characters, but uninspiring overa
