Synopsis

Women are dying in house fires in Valley Oak, California. Detective Gabi Rivera is beginning to suspect the flames are hiding the cause of death.

An Iraq veteran and experienced investigator, Gabi knows how much a burned crime scene can conceal. As she reconstructs the victims’ final days, small discrepancies begin connecting deaths that had been investigated separately. Someone has been getting close to these women, and the people they left behind may know more than they realize.

Former Army criminal investigator Danny Vasquez recognizes details that bring him back to an unresolved death in Iraq. His knowledge could help Gabi find the killer, but his connection to the past also puts him under scrutiny. She’ll have to follow the evidence even when it leads toward a man she’s beginning to trust.

Working through damaged records, frightened witnesses, and memories neither has fully confronted, Gabi and Danny uncover connections spanning more than twenty years. Their growing intimacy gives them something to hope for while making an already difficult investigation deeply personal.

And as they begin to understand how the killer gains access to his victims, they face an urgent question: who has already let him in?

From the Fire combines a tense police investigation with the lasting consequences of war and an unfolding love story between two veterans learning to trust again. It opens a continuing crime thriller series from combat veteran and former police officer Rick Leach.
