Combustible

Detective Sam Lawson was perfectly happy doing just enough to get by. But when he’s sent to investigate an accidental death in a house fire, he unwittingly ignites a powder keg of secrets.

Everyone seems to have something to hide, and a reason to kill. Was it the vengeful arsonist? The widow with a sordid past? The son with a chip on his shoulder? Or is an ambitious warden trying to keep a prison scandal under wraps?

More at home in a seedy bar than a police station, Sam is his own worst enemy. But with lives on the line (and a new female medical examiner to impress), he must pull himself together to solve the case and redeem his reputation.

One thing’s for sure: the more Sam fans the flames, the more likely he is to get burned.

Set in the colorful world of East Texas, Combustible is the first book in the award-winning Sam Lawson Mystery series. A gripping page-turner with surprising twists, memorable characters and crisp dialogue, it's a riveting crime thriller you won't be able to put down.
