The House Fire

Play with fire and you’ll get burned… Who can you trust? ?????? A tired old seaside town hiding a series of unsolved arson attacks. A derelict mansion in the woods with a long-buried secret. A bundle of old love letters that mask a dark story. When Jamie's documentary investigation gets too close to uncovering the truth behind a series of deadly arson attacks that tormented Abbeywick in the 1980s, her family might be the ones who pay the price. But for her younger sister Cleo, the secrets Jamie uncovers have the potential to get exactly what Cleo wants: to remove her mum's toxic new husband from their lives, forever. All it takes is one spark to send everything up in smoke… ?????? Readers are entralled by The House Fire! 'That first chapter sucker punched me and drew me in. I was helpless, gripped.
