Scorched Heart (The Firebrand Series Book 4) Kindle Edition

My parents were brutally murdered when I was five years old. Their killer has spent the last twenty five years in prison for his terrible crimes - but I still have unanswered questions. After all, I am the phoenix. When I die, I am reborn in fire and brimstone. It happens again and again and again.

I have no idea where my strange ability came from and nobody to ask. Now another shocking murder has been committed in the small village where my parents died and there is evidence which suggests the killer is supernatural. The crime gives me the perfect reason to return to my childhood home. I can offer my expertise as a Supe Squad detective - and seek the truth behind what I really am.

The trouble is that I might not like what I find.

Scorched Heart is the fourth book in the action-packed urban fantasy Firebrand series. Events occur at the same time as The Noose Of A New Moon in the Wolfbrand series, although the books do not have to be read together to be enjoyed.

Loving this series ! Each book gets better. The storylines are fast paced and well developed. The characters are fun, interesting, and have a lot of heart. Police cases to solve that are intriguing and full of suspense and danger. Read these books!!

Helen is a master of the twist that makes sense only after it happens. Her world is a very enjoyable departure from the usual urban fantasy world.

5.0 out of 5 stars DC BELLAMY STRIKES AGAIN
Reviewed in the United States on January 14, 2022

Not only do I love ‘Em and Lucas, I can’t recommend Helen Harper enough. Her writing is imaginative, witty, and descriptive enough to help you feel like you really know her characters. The plots are tight and twist so that you may think you know what’s coming but she surprises you yet again. Always a lively, absorbing read. This one took me less than two busy days. During Covid you deserve a good break. Try any of the series involving DC Bellamy and Lord Lucas Horvath. You will want to read them all.

This is the first time I've written about this series other than giving it 5 stars. The only reason that I do is I just like these stories. They're not award winners or anything like that. Also I have given other stories that demand more thought and are better written but I just like these. So 5 stars. Give them a try and see if you like them enough to give them 5 stars also.

I find that most series I read after the 3rd or 4th book I start losing interest in the characters, but I still want to keep seeing what happens to Lukas and Emma and really everyone. Love this series.

5.0 out of 5 stars Helen Barmer so gut wie nie
Reviewed in Germany on December 14, 2023

Ich liebe die Bücher von Helen Harper, aber dieses schlägt alles. Ich liege seit zwei Stunden in der Badewanne, weil die Spannung so unglaublich hoch war, dass ich nicht aufhören konnte/wollte, zu lesen. Emma und Lukas sind unglaublich starke Charaktere, die aber nicht nur schwarz oder weiß sind, sondern sie haben auch Grauschattierungen. Jeder Nebencharkter ist unglaublich gut ausgearbeitet, die vielen Wendungen lassen, wie gesagt, alles offen. Emma Geschichte wird weiter gesponnen und geht direkt ins Herz. Ich würde auch 6 Sterne vergeben, wenn ich könnte. Für alle, die Katie MacAllister, Molly Harper und jede Form von Urban Fantasy mögen, definitive Leseempfehlung mit Doppeldaumen.

I'm enjoying this series SO much, thank you Helen
Fans of the Rivers of London would enjoy this.
Not your typical predictable Supernatural/Rom fiction, twisty and surprising enough, good humour and clever plot weaving.
Characters are all believable, funny and charming- highly recommended.
