When a bomb explodes in a van parked outside the first mosque ever built in the UK, local police immediately suspect that it’s a racially-motivated attack carried out by local right-wing extremists…however, as Detective Superintendent Alec Ramsey’s investigation deepens, he uncovers a simmering feud between two families that goes back decades at the center of the attacks…soon, Ramsey finds himself struggling to bring the real killers to justice as the looming shadow of international political influence begins to render his efforts increasingly in vain . . .

Slow Burn is a dynamic suspense thriller. In his standout seventh offering, prolific author Conrad Jones skillfully interweaves global political intrigue with family drama and tragedy to craft a taut, action-packed tale of the perils of succumbing to the dangerous throes of vengeance. Coming in at just over 300 pages, Slow Burn reads like a novel less than half its size as Burns masterfully strings together compelling characters and intersecting plotlines to forge a fast-paced, edge-of-your-seat read sure to grip the reader in breathtaking suspense with the turn of each new page. A highly recommended instant classic from a proven literary talent. — Josee Morgan
