Tempered by fire and separated by centuries, two extraordinary women track a pair of murderous geniuses who will burn the world for their art in this Victorian mystery perfect for fans of Dan Brown and Anne Perry. London, 1666: Margaret Dove, lady-in-waiting to King Charles II's queen, is dismayed when word arrives at Whitehall of a fire sweeping through the city. When her close friend vanishes into the smoke and his body is later found bashed in among the rubble of St. Paul's, she becomes convinced that there was devilry behind the fire and launches her own inquiry. London, present day: Detective Inspector Nigella Parker has a special talent for solving deadly arson cases. When a charred figure is found curled beside Christopher Wren, a famous architect's monument to the Great Fire, Nigella is pitted against a murderous artist whose techniques are as macabre as they are deadly. Nigella partners with Detective Inspector O'Leary of Scotland Yard to track the arsonist, and a damning trail of clues leads them to a connection between Wren's great achievement and the murders more than 350 years before them. Who was behind the burning of St. Paul's? Was Christopher Wren more than just a brilliant architect? And how have the charred embers of London's dark past come to set the city ablaze once again?
