What if fairy tales were real?
The scary monster you thought was lurking under your bed with the dust bunnies has got his feet up on your desk and is drinking coffee with your boss. Cassandra 'Red' Rose is a war-worn cop with way more scars than most. A senior detective in The Metropolitan Police, she fights the mean streets - cleansing them of their sins - all the while, fending off demons of her own. Real-life crime and a handful of ghosts.
London's Burning.
With a pile of serious crimes to investigate and limited resources, Red isn't too happy when The Super drops yet another 'urgent' case on her desk - especially as most of the incidents haven't happened on their patch... but the lure of overtime for the team just about clinches the deal.
A series of arson attacks across the city have left buildings in ruins, vagrants murdered in their sleep and top brass wanting answers. Superintendent Blake wants Red to work her magic and triumph where other branches have failed and he's given her a fortnight to do it.
Red never fails at anything, except maybe, convincing Pippa that the kids are old enough to make their own decisions and that they should let them - that's one battle she'll never win.
London's Burning, and DCI Rose is the only one who can put it out.
Perfect for fans of Angela Marsons, Rachel Abbott, Val McDermid and Mark Billingham.
