Seriously eccentric characters, razor-sharp dark humor, snappy dialogue, and relentless suspense-Burn delivers it all. Paul Slatter launches the Vancouver Series with this fast-paced blend of murder, mystery, mayhem, and even higher fashion. A woman is left paralyzed, her boyfriend burned alive as his body floats out on a creek, and Detective Daltrey is determined to find out why. But when the case takes a shocking twist, it lands squarely in the lap of Charles Chuck Chendrill, a legendary private investigator turned eccentric has-been. Plunging deep into Vancouver's gritty underworld, Chendrill uncovers a volatile mix of psychotic Russians, fame-hungry supermodels, and dangerous secrets in his hunt for the killer. Quickly enough, he encounters Illya, a fire-obsessed maniac on a desperate search for his sister, and Dan, a socially awkward electronics whiz suddenly thrust into the media supermodel frenzy. From twisted scandals to explosive confrontations, Burn is a darkly comic, high-stakes mystery where nothing is quite what it seems. Perfect for fans of Elmore Leonard and Carl Hiaasen, Burn is wickedly entertaining, laugh-out-loud funny, and impossible to put down. Praise for Burn: Okay, I've ripped through the first two and I'm ready for number 3. When may I expect it? Yes, that means I really like these books, the characters and the humor. A wickedly crafted tale filled with all the elements to make it a guaranteed page turner. Highly recommended! Very much looking forward to the next one. The tension is ripe from the get-go and you can never be prepared for what is to happen next. This book is a unique phenomenon. This is funny as hell, so dirty you'll have no choice but to recognize yourself in it. Absolutely great read. Loved the book from page one on and couldn't put it down. Many twists and turns will keep you on your toes every time you turn a page and best of all.... It's hilariously funny. This is a fantastic read. Equal parts pulp, comedy, lewd humour and visceral crime, Burn never fails to entertain and shock.
