Commit a sin and you’ll go to the Bad Fire… That’s what Eddie Mallon was told when he was growing up in Glasgow. Now he’s about to discover that even after all these years, the fire never goes out.

Eddie was just a child when his familysplit down the middle. He went to America with his mother and later became a cop; his sister Joyce stayed in Glasgow with their father, the charming, violent, mercurial Jackie Mallon. Now Jackie has been murdered and the son he didn’t know is coming home for the funeral. But while he’s back in town, Eddie can’t help questioning the work of the local investigators. And when he does, he finds himself spiralling into the mysteries of the past as well as the present.
