Charlie Johnson In The Flames

Charlie Johnson is a veteran war correspondent who thinks he has seen it all—until he makes one rash expedition to a small outpost on the Kosovan-Serb border in 1998. He sees a woman who sheltered him engulfed in flames—and he runs out to save her. But he too is caught in the deadly fire. Charlie becomes consumed with finding her killer—who his friend and cameraman Jacek caught on film. Charlie Johnson in the Flames is a remarkable book, combining a clear-sighted and introspective account of the evils of war with a tender love story and a thriller-like plot.
