A clever, gripping thriller — a Da Vinci Code for those who like
their prose to be elegant as well as page-turning
*The Times – Best Historical Fiction of 2015*
Magnificent...Clever, gripping, and a nifty thriller to boot
*Daily Mail*
Into the Fire is a wonderful blend of fast and furious action,
bravura storytelling, a palpable sense of place - Orléans past and
present - and a whodunnit that will keep you guessing until the
final pages. Fabulous.
*Kate Mosse*
Wonderful...Combines the two things I love most: thrillers and
historical fiction
*Daily Express*
Expertly blends a very plausible solution to a genuine historical
mystery with a compulsive contemporary thriller. The result, as the
title suggests, is intoxicatingly fiery reading
*Robert Goddard*
