Inferno

Mira

November 2008

Winner of the 2005 Mary Higgins Clark Award for Dark Angel Evil spreads like wildfire Bush pilot Lauren Taylor knows better than most the devastation fire can leave in its wake. Two years ago she lost her husband to a raging wildfire. But when she flies a stranger into her isolated home town, her actions may be the spark that starts an inferno. Because the mysterious passenger bears an undeniable resemblance to a serial arsonist wanted by the FBI – and he’s disappeared into the tinder-dry woods… When her young son goes missing, FBI Agent Brad Hale realises the little boy may hold the key to his investigation. Hot on the stranger’s trail, Lauren and Brad will do anything to stop a man bent on destruction…even if that means rushing headlong into the flames. “Harper has a fantastic flair for creating and sustaining suspense.” —Publishers Weekly
