Los Angeles homicide detective Elouise "Lou" Norton and her partner, Colin Taggert, arrive at the scene of a tragic house fire. Juliet Chatman perished in the blaze, along with her two children. Left behind is grieving husband and father Christopher Chatman, hospitalized after trying to rescue his family. Chatman is devastated that he couldn't save them.

Unless, of course, he's the one who killed them.

Neighbors and family friends insist the Chatmans were living the dream. But Lou quickly discovers the reality was very different. The flames of adultery, jealousy, scandal, fraud, and disease had all but consumed the Chatmans' marriage before it went up in smoke.

Lou's own marriage hangs by a thread. Soured by the men in her life, Lou is convinced that Chatman started the fire. Her colleagues worry that her personal issues are obscuring her judgment. With very little evidence regarding the fire―and rising doubts about her husband's commitment to monogamy―Lou feels played by all sides.

Was the fire sparked by a serial arsonist known as The Burning Man? Or by the Chatmans' son, who regularly burned his father's property?

Searching for justice through the ashes of a picture-perfect family, Lou doesn't know if she will catch an arsonist or be burned in the process.

Skies of Ash is another thrilling read from author-to-watch Rachel Howzell Hall.

8 of 9 people found the following review helpful. The latest case of Lou Norton's does not disappoint. By L. Chinnery Rachel once again delivers another page turner that takes you inside of LA detective Lou Norton's life all while taking you in a wild ride as she and her partner get to the bottom of a grizzly murder of a family. While I had my suspicions I was surprised at the end. As always the end leaves you wanting to grab the next book to see where Lou goes next both personally and professionally.

I am so invested in her newest character, Det. Elouise Norton. I am thrilled she created this series.No spoilers. But, all I can say is that this book is perfectly written. The plot is pregnant with possibilities and Rachel has paced it in a manner that keeps the reader engaged from one page after another.The characters are very well developed and really very believable. This book is very well written. The author is a superb story teller. If you enjoy murder mysteries and suspense, then this is the book for you! Trust me.Like another reviewer wrote....I just want Lou to be happy and maybe she will now that her father has returned.I can not wait for the next book in this series. She hit this ball way out of the park. Skies Of Ash is a home run!
