The Burning eBook

Martin Downs is a loner with an odd fixation, a desire that had been growing inside him for years since an incident he witnessed as a teenager. Now, years later and living in a house on his own, he has the time and opportunity to act on his fixation. Detective Naomi Charlton is investigating a mass brawl at a nightclub when she becomes aware that the homes of females have been broken into and their property interfered with. Nothing is ever damaged or taken, but something invisible is left behind. She takes her concerns to her superior who is dismissive at first, she challenges him and eventually he tells her she is to investigate but to prioritise the nightclub riot. Only when the wife of the town's MP suffers an incident does Naomi get taken seriously and put on the investigation full time. Detective Naomi Charlton is a lonely single woman, unable to find a man to share her life with and buries herself in her work. But during the course of the investigation, she finds love where she least expects it. This story is based on real events.
