Description
A Slow Fire Burning is a propulsive, twisty thriller which examines the insidious and destructive nature of past trauma. Paula Hawkins writes: 'A Slow Fire Burning starts with a brutal murder on a London canal boat. Laura, a likely suspect, is witnessed leaving the scene and for a while it looks like a straightforward case. But what I wanted to explore in this book is the way that no tragedy happens in isolation: an accident in childhood can have ramifications a decade later; trusting the wrong person at the wrong time can derail a life completely. I am interested in the way we become the people we are: how we choose what to hold onto and how those things can wound us.'
Paula Hawkins' debut thriller The Girl on the Train became one of the top 5 bestselling hardback novels since records began and has sold 23 million copies worldwide, in over 40 languages.
