Product Description

Amazon.co.uk Review

In the crowded genre of feisty female sleuths, it takes someone special to really make their mark. Introduced in 1979, protagonist Sharon McCone remains the first and arguably the best in the school of tough female private eyes. In A Walk Through The Fire, Sharon is contacted by documentary film maker Glenna Stanleigh to investigate suspected sabotage on a film set. Sharon accepts with alacrity; she's more than ready to travel to the sandy Hawaiian island of Kauia and (hopefully) mix business with pleasure. But her illusions are short- lived, as casual vandalism soon turns into dangerous violence with Sharon in more danger than in any of her previous adventures. As usual, dialogue is one of Muller's specialities and here it fairly crackles off the page with Sharon encountering the usual bizarre and colourful mix of suspects. --Barry Forshaw


Product Description

A documentary filmmaker suspects sabotage on the set and sends for Sharon McCone to investigate on the Hawaiian Island of Kauia where the shooting is taking place. Vandalism escalates into violence, and Sharon finds herself walking through a blazing fire of emotion and terror.

3.0 out of 5 stars Murder in Hawaii, 4 Mar 2000
By A Customer
I always snap up the latest Marcia Muller as soon as it becomes available in paperback.

This is the twentieth, roughly, in a series of novels starring Sharon McCone, feisty women private investigator in San Francisco. In this one, her latest assignment takes her to Hawaii, and she is soon drawn into a murder investigation.

This is interwoven as in many of the Sharon McCone novels with the story of her complex relationship with her boyfriend.

I enjoyed reading this, but it is not Marcia Muller's best. Fans of such writers as Sara Paretsky would enjoy these books, but should start with some of the earlier ones.
