The Stranger Times - winner of the 2023 British Fantasy Award for Best Audio Work! Some
comebacks can be murder . . . Stella is enjoying life as an almost student or at least she is
until a man falls from the sky right in front of her leaving a big old hole in the pavement
for Manchester Council to fill. The obvious question of how he ended up in the sky in the first
place has no obvious answers which is where The Stranger Times come in. But this isn't just
the hunt for another story. Dark powers think Stella might have been involved and the only way
she and the team can prove her innocence is to find out what the hell is really going on. And
what have dodgy gear disturbed graves and a decommissioned rock star got to do with all this?
Vincent Banecroft has problems of his own in the form of a tall dark
but-definitely-not-handsome man dressed like a funeral who has been sent to make the paper's
editor atone for his sins. Once he finds out exactly what that entails Banecroft is not keen.
Being banished to a Hellscape for all eternity looks like being no fun at all not least
because he has that pale Irish skin that burns really easily . . . All that plus territorial
ghouls homicidal felines eternal (and seemingly unstoppable) gnomes and a celebrity Who's Who
that'd put a royal wedding to shame and you're looking at a wild few days for The Stranger
Times. Relight My Fire is the fourth book in the acclaimed and brilliantly funny Stranger Times
series.
