Product Description
Product Description
William Logan has grown away from his roots, and away from the city of Glasgow. In twenty years in America, he has barely thought about the place, turning his back not only on the city of his birth, but the custom of his family, by going to America - and becoming a cop. Now, Logan is coming back, for his father's funeral. And try as he might, he cannot help getting involved in some unfinished family business...The Bad Fire is the place where children are told they will go for being naughty. Logan is about to find out that even after all these years, the fire never goes out. Lyrical, elegiac, suspenseful and thrilling, The Bad Fire is Campbell Armstrong's greatest novel since Jig.

From the Publisher
A thriller by the author of JIG and ALL THAT REALLY MATTERS
Eddie Mallon has grown away from his roots, and away from the city of Glasgow. Eddie was just a child when his family fractured down the middle. He went to America with his mother; his sister Joyce stayed in Glasgow with their father, the charming, violent, mercurial Jackie Mallon.
Eddie Mallon has grown away from his roots, and away from the city of Glasgow. Eddie was just a child when his family fractured down the middle. He went to America with his mother; his sister Joyce stayed in Glasgow with their father, the charming, violent, mercurial Jackie Mallon.
Now Jackie has been murdered and the son he didn’t know is coming home for the funeral. Try as he might, Eddie cannot resist pushing beyond the bland front presented by the local investigators. And when he does, he finds himself spiralling into the mysteries of the past as well as the present.
The Bad Fire is the place where children are told they will go if they commit a sin. Eddie is about to find out that even after all these years, the fire never goes out.
• Campbell Armstrong returns to his native Glasgow with a novel as full of human insight and relentless suspense as anything he has written in his remarkable career.
• Lyrical, elegiac, suspenseful and thrilling, THE BAD FIRE is populated by a cast of superbly drawn individuals, with the city of Glasgow a brilliantly evoked character in its own right.
