covered in dried blood. His name is Gabriel. He tells Chandler what he
remembers. He was drugged and driven to

is Heath walks into the same station. He tells Chandler he was taken by a man
named Gabriel. Gabriel told Heath he was going to be victim 55. Gabriel is the serial killer. Two suspects. Two identical

On the scorching February day in 2009 that became known
as Black Saturday, a man lit two fires in Victoria's Latrobe Valley,
then sat on the roof of his house to watch the inferno. In the Valley, where
the rates of crime were the highest in the state, more than thirty people were
known to police as firebugs. But the detectives soon found themselves on the
trail of a man they didn't know. The Arsonist is by Chloe Hooper and
takes readers on the hunt for this man, and inside the strange puzzle of his
mind. It is also the story of fire in Australia, and of a community
that owed its existence to that very element. The command of fire has defined
and sustained us as a species - understanding its abuse will define our
future.

dangerous serial killer the FBI had ever encountered. Now, after spending three and a half years

he's angry. For the past three and a
half years, Lucien has thought of nothing else but vengeance. The person responsible for locking him away
