Hamburg state prosecutor Chastity Riley investigates a series of
arson attacks on cars across the city, which leads her to a
startling and life-threatening discovery involving criminal gangs
and a very illicit love story... 'Another brilliant adventure in
the company of Chastity Riley, the coolest character in crime
fiction. Darkly funny and written with a huge heart' Doug Johnstone
'Reading Buchholz is like walking on firecrackers ... a truly
unique voice in crime fiction' Graeme Macrae Burnet 'Caustic,
incisive prose. A street-smart, gutsy heroine. A timely and
staggeringly stylish thriller' Will Carver ________________ Night
after night, cars are set alight across the German city of Hamburg,
with no obvious pattern, no explanation and no suspect. Until, one
night, on Mexico Street, a ghetto of high-rise blocks in the north
of the city, a Fiat is torched. Only this car isn't empty. The body
of Nouri Saroukhan - prodigal son of the Bremen clan - is soon
discovered, and the case becomes a homicide. Public prosecutor
Chastity Riley is handed the investigation, which takes her deep
into a criminal underground that snakes beneath the whole of
Germany. And as details of Nouri's background, including an illicit
relationship with the mysterious Aliza, emerge, it becomes clear
that these are not random attacks, and there are more on the
cards... ________________ 'A stylish, whip-smart thriller' Russel
McLean 'Lyrical and pithy' Sunday Times 'Fierce enough to stab the
heart' Spectator 'A real blast of adrenaline' Big Issue 'Sharp and
unrelenting' CultureFly 'Simone Buchholz writes with real authority
and a pungent, noir-ish sense of time and space' Financial Times
'Deeply moody, atmospheric and evocative' Blue Book Balloon 'An
unconventional, refreshing new voice' Crime Fiction Lover
