A propos de ce titre

Synopsis

Crippling debts and the return of his unfaithful partner have bent fireman, Steve Jay, out of shape. A horrific fire in East London tests him and his watch to the limit. Then he's offered serious money to investigate some fires.

Revue de presse

A promising start . . . this first-time novelist draws on his own experiences as a London firefighter to bring to life the dangerous world of firefighting. (Hello (Thermal Image))

O'Keeffe...brings an authentic feel to his descriptions of fire fighting, and the plot, involving arson and murder, is skilfully brought to an exciting climax (Sunday Telegraph (Thermal Image))

I hope he is planning more murders and more fires for his hero to fight his way through. (The Scotsman, Gerald Kaufman)

...authentic realism...packed with far more incidents than an episode of London's Burning (Publishing News (Thermal Image))

Pat O'Keeffe has written an intelligent and thoughtful novel that rises far above the typical arson terrorist adventure novel...Thermal Image is a successful debut novel and worthy of a reader's time. (deadly pleasures)

This first novel from Pat O'Keeffe is truly gripping with plenty of twists and turns in the plot...This is truly a book that is virtually impossible to put down. (the irish world)

This is an excellent first outing from a new author who deserves to be watched (Shots)
