Fifteen years ago, a fire tore through two families-killing parents, siblings, and futures. Only three children survived: Tim, Lucy, and Aaron. They grew up in the ruins of that tragedy, carrying unanswered questions, unspoken grief, and a hunger for truth.
Now in their twenties, the trio uncovers what the police never did: that the fire wasn't an accident. It was murder. But did they already know that.
As Tim, Lucy, and Aaron dive deeper into the past, they discover a chilling web of lies tied to the powerful Smith family-the very people who shattered their lives. Fueled by sorrow and justice, they begin to craft a plan. A plan for answers. A plan for vengeance.
But revenge comes at a price.
Amid interrogations, confessions, and calculated violence, emotions run high. Old wounds reopen. Secrets ignite. And amid it all, a quiet love begins to bloom-timid, secret, and stubbornly alive in the heart of devastation.
