The fire crewfind five victims, parents and children and one grandchildren. The investigation shows that the fire didn't cause their dead, they were killed by gunshots. The story is interesting and you don't just have one main character that fills the story. The characters mostly have a deep background and are authentic and fascinating. The plot ist very good and fascinated me from the first pages to the end.

A house is ravaged by fire. When the fire crew go in they find five victims- the parents a son and daughter and her son. Further investigation shows that they were already dead from gunshot wounds. What on earth has happened and why? Di Matthew Denning and Ds Molly Fisher discover what first appeared a harmless family had more than their fair share of issues but enough to lead to murder? They each have their own home issues. Molly with her errant brother Ben and Denning with his son. I like it when there is more to the main characters than “just” the plot line. It gives them depth and personality and more of that real feel to them. I took to this book very quickly-- always a good sign and liked the main characters tenacity , the chapters flowing easily and I wanted to know what happened next. An excellent plot line with nothing too gory or upsetting which gives a very comfortable read. A truly brilliant very entertaining read.

The basis of the story is the investigation into the killing of 5 people who are discovered dead after a house fire. The investigation is led by DI Matthew Denning, and I have to admit he wasn’t a character I engaged with. Neither was his DS Molly Fisher. I usually love books that give a story to the main characters, but on this occasion I just couldn’t get into it
The story of the murder investigation is good enough to make this book worth a read.
