I’m Jim McKeown , welcome to Likely Stories, a weekly review of fiction, non-fiction, and poetry. Paula Hawkins is the author of The Girl on the Train and Into the Water. A Slow Fire Burning is her latest novel. These superb novels are by turns frightful, serious, and filled with deceit—by the three main characters. The story revolves around a gruesome murder, which arouses the suspicions of other characters. These three women are connected to the victim.
