When bombers strike, DCI Bruce Thorn knows only one thing for certain: this isn't his first inferno.

After eight months of mandatory leave following his twin sister's mysterious "suicide attempt," DCI Bruce Thorn is desperate to return to work, even if it means taking a desk job. But when a Glasgow nightclub erupts in flames, killing dozens, Bruce finds himself thrust back into the field.

As biblical passages begin appearing at each crime scene, Bruce and his reluctant partner, DI Caitlyn Morris, race to unravel a pattern of vengeance before the next target goes up in smoke. Each bombing brings them closer to the culprit, but something isn't adding up. The profile doesn't match. The evidence seems too convenient.

Meanwhile, Bruce can't shake the feeling that his sister's coma wasn't self-inflicted.

Two investigations collide as Bruce realizes the terrifying truth: the bombings may only be the beginning, and the person who tried to kill his sister hasn't finished what they started.

From the smoldering ashes of tragedy to the haunting whispers of conspiracy, Scorched Earth delivers a pulse-pounding thriller where the past and present ignite in a deadly countdown.
