In a small seaside village in South Kerry, Martha Knox develops an unlikely career burning emotionally charged objects and photographing the results. Her clients travel from far and wide with things they need destroyed. But relationships in Martha’s new life become increasingly complicated with the arrival of curator Kingsley, who is considering her work for his renowned Berlin Biennale. Kingsley also has something for Martha to burn – something rather unusual.

A hi-octane story of art and the value of obsession; fame and the priceof envy; friendship and the uncertainty of love.

Praise for Deep Burn:

“A nimble novel rich in imagery.” – RTE

“At once absorbing and askew, Deep Burn is a rare thing: a rural Irish thriller doubled as an art-world satire.” – The Irish Times
