Death in Flames
(1943)(The ninth book in the Patrick Dawlish series)
A novel by Gordon Ashe (John Creasey)
A frightened young girl looking for the kind of help that the Police can't give her and a secretive underground conspiracy leads Patrick Dawlish deep into a murderous plot that will strike at the very heart of British democracy.
For the first time in his career is Dawlish out of his depth? Is the terrifying plan already too far advanced to stop? Can the wheels that have been set in motion even be stopped?
Fiction maestro John Creasey ( 1908 - 1973 ) was and remains an enigma. He was one of the biggest selling and (by most measures) the most prolific producer of fiction, of the 20th century, writing over 620 novels in both his own name and through over 25 different pseudonyms including; Gordon Ashe, Michael Halliday, Jeremy York, Norman Deane, Anthony Morton and JJ Maric.
Creasey's popularity is as staggering as his output with book sales approaching 100 million copies across 29 languages in over 100 countries. At the peak of his commercial success Creasey was selling 4 million books a year in the UK and USA alone. Protagonists such as Gideon of Scotland Yard, The Baron and The Toff are lynchpins of British post war crime fiction, and several Creasey works were adapted for TV and film.
Genre: Mystery
