On an October evening in South Pasadena, a horrifying wave of flame swept through a large home improvement center, snuffing out the lives of four innocent people, including a two-year-old boy. Firefighters rushed to the scene, even as a pair of equally suspicious fires broke out in two nearby stores. Silently watching the raging inferno in the midst of the heat, smoke, and chaos was a man respected as one of California's foremost arson investigators, a captain in the Glendale Fire Department ...

From Joseph Wambaugh, the critically acclaimed, nationally bestselling author of The Onion Field, comes the astonishing true story of a nightmarish obsession -- and the hunt for a brilliant psychopath who lived a double life filled with professional tributes and terrifying secrets.

Book Description Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Growing up in Los Angeles, John Orr watched with awe as firefighters scrambled to put out blazes with a seeming disregard for their own lives. Wanting to emulate his heroes, he finally became a fireman with the Glendale Fire Department. An eccentric and a loner who made few friends, Orr moonlighted as a security guard, eventually becoming a fire captain and one of southern Californias most renowned serial arson investigators. While Orr busted a string of petty arsonists, there was one serial criminal who was responsible for killing four people he couldnt track down. This fire lover used the same simple yet devastating device, and was perfect in his execution. Until he left a fingerprintone clue investigators could match. When they finally did, they were stunned to discover that the print belonged to none other than John Orr. Award-winning author Joseph Wambaugh tells this chilling story, using interviews, case records, and hundreds of thousands of pages of court transcriptions. From the acclaimed bestselling author of "The Onion Field" comes the extraordinary true story of a California arson investigator and fire captain who was also, according to government profilers, the most prolific American arsonist of the 20th century. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability. Seller Inventory # 9780060095284
