Inside Discovery
Set in 1983 Birmingham, nearby Redditch, and Barmouth in Wales, The Alpha Flame: Discovery follows Beth and Maggie as they uncover dark family secrets and fight to survive.
It is character-led, emotionally charged fiction about the bond between two women who refuse to be broken by what the world has done to them.
Beth's world narrows into loss, danger, and loneliness, with only a fragile ember of defiance left burning.
Maggie is fast, fierce, loyal, and impossible to ignore. When she steps in, the story changes shape.
Their connection is tender, volatile, protective, and dangerous enough to expose every hidden truth.

Read more reviewsGood book, would recommend. I found the story gripping from the start and I like how authentic the details were about Birmingham. The details about the city were spot on, and the characters were very relatable. A solid read.
