Hamburg state prosecutor Chastity Riley investigates a series of arson attacks on cars across the city, which leads her to a startling and life-threatening discovery involving criminal gangs and a very illicit love story...
'Another brilliant adventure in the company of Chastity Riley, the coolest character in crime fiction. Darkly funny and written with a huge heart&; Doug Johnstone
'Reading Buchholz is like walking on firecrackers &; a truly unique voice in crime fiction&; Graeme Macrae Burnet
&;Caustic, incisive prose. A street-smart, gutsy heroine. A timely and staggeringly stylish thriller&; Will Carver
 ________________
Night after night, cars are set alight across the German city of Hamburg, with no obvious pattern, no explanation and no suspect.
Until, one night, on Mexico Street, a ghetto of high-rise blocks in the north of the city, a Fiat is torched. Only this car isn&;t empty. The body of Nouri Saroukhan &; prodigal son of the Bremen clan &; is soon discovered, and the case becomes a homicide.
Public prosecutor Chastity Riley is handed the investigation, which takes her deep into a criminal underground that snakes beneath the whole of Germany. And as details of Nouri&;s background, including an illicit relationship with the mysterious Aliza, emerge, it becomes clear that these are not random attacks, and there are more on the cards...
