The Burning

The Burning plunges readers into London, 1666, where the city is a tinderbox waiting for a spark.

As the Great Fire tears through the streets, a secret sect pursues an ancient prophecy: a child born on the sixth day, of the sixth month, at the sixth hour will either save the city or destroy it. Agnes Wilmore has just given birth to that child—and now she must protect him.

Caught between Robert, a former soldier determined to claim the boy’s destiny, and Thomas, a Watch officer hiding dangerous secrets, Agnes is pulled into a deadly struggle for control of the child’s future.

From smoke-filled alleys to burning wharves, The Burning is a fast-paced historical thriller where betrayal lurks behind every promise and survival depends on knowing whom to trust.

Some fires cleanse. Some consume. This one will do both.
