In Cold Daylight

by PaulineRowson (Author)

Synopsis

UK fire-fighters are dying long after they've reached the safety of cold daylight from the burning darkness of a blaze. Why? Marine artist Adam Greene is left to find out when his best friend, fire fighter Jack Bartholomew, is killed in a fire. Was it an accident or arson? Adam attends the funeral ready to mourn when another funeral intrudes upon his thoughts, and one he has tried very hard to forget for the last fifteen years. But before he has time to digest this, or discover the identity of the stranger stalking him, Jack's house is ransacked. Unaware of the risks he is running Adam soon finds himself caught up in a mysterious and dangerous web of deceit. By exposing a secret that has lain dormant for years Adam is forced to face his own dark secrets, and as the facts reveal themselves the prospects for his survival look bleak. But Adam knows there is no turning back; he has to get to the truth no matter what the cost, even if it means his life.
