The Bad Fire (Bob Skinner series, Book 31) by Quintin Jardine
The gripping new mystery in the bestselling Bob Skinner series by Quintin Jardine, the acclaimed author of COLD CASE and STATE SECRETS. 'If Ian Rankin is the Robert Carlyle of Scottish crime writers, then Jardine is surely its Sean Connery' Glasgow Herald
'Scottish crime-writing at its finest, with a healthy dose of plot twists and turns, bodies and plenty of brutality' * Sun *
'Jardine writes like he chews girders, but there's a subtlety too to his hard-edged crime thrillers that are very much in the vanguard of the tough but intelligent tartan noir movement. . Skinner's lost none of his hard edge when he steps up to the plate after his daughter Alex, a legal eagle, is in trouble when a cold murder case explodes red hot and dangerous. Someone's going to meet his match in Skinner' * Peterborough Evening Telegraph *
'Well-constructed... intriguing' * Scotland on Sunday *
'The legendary Quintin Jardine . . . such a fine writer' * Denzil Meyrick *

Quintin Jardine was born once upon a time in the West - of Scotland rather than America, but still he grew to manhood as a massive Sergio Leone fan. On the way there he was educated, against his will, in Glasgow, where he ditched a token attempt to study law for more interesting careers in journalism, government propaganda, and political spin-doctoring. After a close call with the Brighton Bomb in 1984, he moved into the even riskier world of media relations consultancy, before realising that all along he had been training to become a crime writer. Now, forty novels later, he never looks back.
Along the way he has created/acquired an extended family in Scotland and Spain. Everything he does is for them.
