Publisher's Summary

On 14 June 2017, a 24-storey block of flats went up in flames.

The fire climbed up cladding as flammable as solid petrol. Fire doors failed to self-close. No alarm rang out to warn sleeping residents. As smoke seeped into their homes, all were told to ‘stay put'. Many did–and they died.

It was a disaster decades in the making.

Peter Apps exposes how a steady stream of deregulation, corporate greed and institutional indifference caused this tragedy. It is the story of a grieving community forsaken by our government, a community still waiting for change.

“However painful the story of Grenfell is, it is one we must hear. Apps' powerful testament tells us how injustice was manifested and how lessons still fail to be learned.”–David Lammy MP

“A staggering achievement, both a testament to the victims, the bereaved and the community of Grenfell and a painstaking, forensic investigation into the causes of the crime itself.”–David Peace, author of the Red Riding Quartet

“Compelling, rigorous, utterly forensic and so very needed. This book has to be the moment that things change.”–Lucy Easthope, author of When the Dust Settles

Moving, a must read

A roller coaster of love, anger and sadness. Very educational and revealing on failures in society
