About this audiobook

Brought to you by Penguin.

Arson, accident or murder?

After a fire rips through a North London tower block, two bodies are found locked in an eleventh-floor flat. But it is the third victim - the MP Geoff Armstrong - that requires the presence of detective Maeve Kerrigan and the murder squad.

It appears that Armstrong, trapped by the fire, chose to jump to his death rather than wait for rescue. But why? And what was the controversial right-wing politician doing there in the first place?

As Maeve picks through the wreckage, she will uncover a secret world where everyone has something to hide . . .
