About the book
Emily Slate: Firefighter Murder Investigation
When FBI Agent Emily Slate uncovers a series of fires being used to mask the murder of firefighters, her investigative skills are put to the test as she tries to catch the killer.
A string of arson cases leads Emily to Charleston, a historic city where she is also on a mission to find the woman who murdered her husband. Despite her personal vendetta, Emily has to prioritize the current crisis, as the community is grieving the loss of two firefighters.
As more fires break out across the city, causing widespread panic, Emily notices a disturbing pattern - each victim is burned alive, both internally and externally. A mysterious symbol at each crime scene leads Emily to suspect they are dealing with a depraved individual with grander plans.
With the arson attacks escalating and the city in chaos, Emily races against time to identify the killer before they engulf the entire city in flames.
