About this book

 

THE FIRE is out now, but the street still smoulders. I light a cigarette with shaking hands, the match flaring too bright in the dark. Last night, the blast took out the corner shop, nothing left but bricks and smoke. I havenโ€™t slept. Who has? I check the sky, listen for sirens. Nothing yet. Just silence and the crackle of falling rubble. I sip cold tea from a chipped mug and wait for morning, if it comes โ€ฆ
