By: Christopher Fowler   | Series: Peculiar Crimes Unit 
No case is too curious for Arthur Bryant and John May, London’s most ingenious detectives. But with their beloved city engulfed in turmoil, they’ll have to work fast to hold a sinister killer’s feet to the fire.

In the week before Guy Fawkes Night, London’s peaceful streets break out in sudden unrest. Enraged by a scandal involving a corrupt financier accused of insider trading, demonstrators are rioting outside the Findersbury Private Bank, chanting, marching, and growing violent. But when someone hurls a Molotov cocktail at the bank’s front door, killing a homeless man on its steps, Bryant, May, and the rest of the Peculiar Crimes Unit is called in. Is this an act of protest gone terribly wrong? Or a devious, premeditated murder?

Their investigation heats up when a second victim is reported dead in similar fiery circumstances. May discovers the latest victim has ties to the troubled bank, and Bryant refuses to believe this is mere coincidence. As the riots grow more intense and the body count climbs, Bryant and May hunt for a killer who’s adopting incendiary methods of execution, on a snaking trail of clues with roots in London’s history of rebellion, anarchy, and harsh justice. Now, they’ll have to throw themselves in the line of fire before the entire investigation goes up in smoke.

Suspenseful, smart, and wickedly funny, Bryant & May and the Burning Man is a brilliantly crafted mystery from the beloved Christopher Fowler.

Praise for Bryant & May and the Burning Man

“Fabulously unorthodox . . . [Fowler] takes delight in stuffing his books with esoteric facts; together with a cast of splendidly eccentric characters [and] corkscrew plots, wit, verve and some apposite social commentary, they make for unbeatable fun.”The Guardian

“Winningly eccentric . . . The books are set in a skillful synthesis of a phantasmagorical earlier era and the modern age.”Financial Times

“The most delightfully, wickedly entertaining duo in crime fiction . . . Fowler’s tale is a rich mix of laugh-out-loud lines, acerbic wit, obscure British history and a wonderfully puzzling story. Grade: A—The Plain Dealer

“Fowler is even better than usual at getting readers to care about his squad of misfits.”Publishers Weekly

“Not even Arthur Bryant’s alarming behavior can dampen the twelfth installment in the most joyously inventive mystery series of our time.”Kirkus Reviews

“Fascinating and intriguing . . . This book is definitely a standalone novel that keeps the reader absorbed in the story, and will make everyone want to go back and read them all. . . . This is a very solid story and a great addition to Fowler’s long-running series. The mystery is fascinating and readers will definitely want to know what happens next. And for newcomers to the series, this will be an excellent place to start.”Suspense Magazine

“Fans of the Bryant and May series will welcome this latest installment with plenty of obscure historical details mixed with outré crimes and the banter of the PCU members. Newcomers will find plenty to enjoy as well without finding the amount of details included from earlier outings overwhelming.”Library Journal

“Witty with a dry sense of humor . . . finely plotted . . . complex and funny.”RT Book Reviews

“A fascinating investigation with lots of false leads and a plethora of historical factoids.”Mystery Scene

Good quality
Color: Black
Have used the frother 5 days in a row. It comes already charged. Fingers crossed no issues when I eventually have to charge it. I love everything about it. It’s worth a little bit of extra money as you can control the blending power from slow to fast. Easily held with both hands to coordinate. Today for a change I elected to just add a touch of bourbon caramel syrup to my oat milk -an excellent choice! They give you two attachments which is helpful. I’m not hard on my kitchen appliances but it’s good to know I have an immediate back up if needed. I rinse frother attachment out immediately in a cup of warm water and air dry on a towel. At this point, I highly recommend. My next adventure in the kitchen will be Matcha tea. I will use the bamboo whisk for the actual tea. If I decide to add oat milk to the top,(such as for a cold latte) I will use this frother.

Higher quality then I expect, very satisfied
Color: Gray
High quality overall, very high powered. It looks really fancy and elegant. The adjustable speed knob on the top is really great. The stand looks really nice but isn't the best design because it is easy to knock over when you take it out, that's my only issue with it.

Typhur Sync Gold Wireless Meat Thermometer
Color: Black
I’ve been extremely impressed with the Typhur Sync Gold Wireless Meat Thermometer. From the first use, it’s clear this is a premium product designed with both convenience and accuracy in mind. The wireless setup makes cooking so much easier—no more dealing with tangled cords or constantly opening the oven or grill to check temperatures. The app is intuitive and provides real-time updates, which gives me total confidence that my food is cooking exactly the way I want it. What really sets this product apart, though, is not just the performance—it’s the exceptional customer service. I ran into an issue with one of the probes, and I have to say their support team was outstanding. They responded quickly, were easy to work with, and resolved the problem without any hassle. They sent me a replacement probe at no cost, which really shows they stand behind their product and care about their customers. Overall, the Typhur Sync Gold delivers on all fronts: accuracy, ease of use, and reliability. Add in their top-notch customer support, and it’s an easy recommendation for anyone serious about cooking or grilling.

Best wireless thermometer (and we've had a bunch)
Color: Black, Color: Black
It's dead accurate and simple to use. Meat temp and grill/oven temp in one probe isn't new but it works perfectly on the Typhur. Temps show immediately when the probe is removed and we haven't had any connection issues. Wifi and the 10x sub-1g is so much better than bluetooth. We can have the grill outside the walkout patio and the base unit connects everywhere in our house. The Typhur app is full featured, polished and easy to use. One app works with their oven, air fryers and sous vide machine. The price is too low to believe. We bought two of these and will be throwing our other wireless unit away. Hoping to try other Typhur products in the future.

A Game-Changer for Precision Cooking
Color: Black
We’ve had the Typhur Sync Smart Meat Thermometer for a few months now, and it’s been nothing short of amazing. The wireless probe is a total game-changer, it frees you up from cords and gives you the flexibility to monitor your cook remotely. It charges via USB-C, which is super convenient. I can use the same charger that powers my smartphone to charge a meat thermometer, imagine saying that sentence 20 years ago. The companion app is one of the highlights. It displays incredibly useful temperature data, including readings from multiple points within the probe to show the gradient of heat inside the meat. You even get a real-time graph tracking the temperature over time, which is especially helpful for monitoring the entire cooking process. And best of all: the app is currently free with no subscription required (fingers crossed it stays that way). The thermometer seems to be very accurate. While I haven’t tested it against lab equipment, the NIST certification and consistently reliable results give me confidence. I’ve made sure the temps fall within my personal margin of error—and so far, so good. I can’t speak for others who may have had issues with the probe, but from what I’ve seen, Typhur’s customer service has a solid reputation. I appreciate that they seem to genuinely stand behind their products. While I primarily use the thermometer for reverse searing steaks, it’s versatile enough for anything from steak to turkey, chicken, or pork loin. If you’re serious about cooking and want precision without hassle, this is a fantastic investment. Highly recommended.
