Synopsis

You will burn

Late spring, 1728.

Fresh from his escape from the gallows, Thomas Hawkins has arrived in Yorkshire with his ward, Sam Fleet. But death still has a hand upon his shoulder, even in such idyllic surroundings.

John Aislabie, Tom's reluctant host, is being tormented by anonymous letters threatening murder. A disgraced politician, Aislabie certainly has plenty of enemies. But, trapped in a house haunted by old tragedies, Tom begins to suspect that the danger lies much closer to home.

Someone is playing a subtle and deadly game of revenge, years in the planning. And now Tom is standing in their way...

'In a tale that more than matches its predecessors for pace and atmosphere, Hawkins is forced into confrontation with a psychopathic killer...hugely enjoyable' - *The Sunday Times* '...historical fiction just doesn't get any better than this.' - Jeffrey Deaver
