Well written and paced, this thriller is both a tribute to and a demonstration of the importance of traditional investigative journalism * Literary Review * A smart and topical thriller * Financial Times * A compelling, fast-paced thriller blended with environmental issues. Hotly topical * Sun * Peter Hanington has a journalist's nose for stories likely to make tomorrow's Radio 4 news . . . The Burning Time is a headline-grabbing thriller * Shots Mag * A wonderfully taut piece of plotting and, like all good roller-coasters, it regularly turns your stomach over as you are swept along; Hanington's endlessly inventive story telling gives you that edgy feeling that everything (the whole world, in this case) could go horribly wrong by the end of the book, and it boasts more bodies than a Jacobean Revenge charity. Thank God for the reassuring presence of William Carver . . . -- Edward Stourton The Burning Time is terrific. [It] will be a classic of the genre -- Peter Hennessy, author of A DUTY OF CARE
