Slow Burn

By Roxanne Longstreet

Book Overview

A sinister plan ignites not-so-spontaneous combustions in an explosive thriller from theNew York Times-bestselling author of the Stillhouse Lake novels. A prostitute's client in Dallas. A jogger in El Paso. A pastor in Louisiana. Across the South and Southwest, middle-aged men are bursting into flames. In the Office of Environmental Hazards, one man is on the case. His initial observations point to something in the drinking water. But intelligence agents suspect something much more ominous: terrorism. Someone somewhere has come up with a diabolic weapon that could attract millions of dollars from the most dangerous people in the world, those with no conscience, no loyalty, no morality. And two women in Dallas--a sex worker and a thief--find themselves thrust into the middle of a conflagration that could raze everything in its path . . .

Customer Reviews

Top-notch suspense, twisty plot, good characters.

_Slow Burn_ is not for the faint-of-heart. People are spontaneously combusting all over Dallas, Texas, and the heroines have to figure out why before they explode themselves.Roxanne Longstreet's protagonists are unusual - a pickpocket and a hooker with a heart of flint - but Longstreet makes the reader care about her characters.The plot keeps you guessing, the writing keeps you involved. Read this book, but not on a dark, stormy night when you are all alone.
