A 'Body Of Evidence' thriller for young adults starring Jenna Blake.
"It's quite a mystery, isn't it? I mean, how do you burn someone to death in public, and not have anyone notice?"
Two people burst into flame, burned alive in front of plenty of eyewitnesses with no obvious cause. Spontaneous human combustion is a bizarre phenomenon, but according to published accounts, it happens. Cold that be what occurred here? Or is it murder?
But the burn victims' clothes weren't flammable, the crime scenes reveal no evidence of arson, and none of the various witnesses can provide anything resembling a clue. In fact she and Slick are just beginning to re-evaluate their faith in rational, scientific explanation when the fire claims another victim, and an incredible explanation presents itself. Even as they struggle with their discovery, the danger hits far too close to home . . .
