The Arsonist’s Handbook by L.A. Detwiler – Review by Erica Fish

The Arsonist’s Handbook: A Gripping Psychological Thriller by L.A. Detwiler
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

The Arsonist’s Handbook is the first book by L. A. Detwiler that I have read. I will be looking for more books by her. The plotline has plot twists and turns that kept me on the edge of my seat. There were points that I thought I knew which way the story was going to go but then it turned in the opposite direction. The characters are sincere with their description. There were emotions in the main characters that kept me on my toes because of the complex nature of their beings. Jameson was a young man who found a journal that was written by his father. He discovered that his father was an arsonist and he felt like he was taking up his father’s legacy. Then there was Pete, a father of an infant that had recently died in a fire. Since we know there is an arsonist and the two main characters are linked by an arsonist. Will Jameson follow in his Father’s footprints? Will Pete find the monster that killed his son? I highly recommend this book, but I will warn you may get so far into the story that you may forget your surroundings. Be prepared to read this story in one sitting.
