Where She Burned

They said it was an accident.
A faulty wire. A tragic fire. Nothing anyone could've done.

But firefighter Drew Maddox knows better.
He felt it in his gut the moment he arrived on scene-
The apartment blaze that killed his fiancée wasn't chance. It was planned. And it was personal.

Haunted by the loss, Drew walks away from the job that once gave him purpose.
But grief turns to obsession when the investigation is closed too quickly, the evidence too clean, and the silence too loud.

Now, Drew is chasing the truth on his own terms.
And the only person willing to help is Reina Chavez-an arson investigator with a sharp mind, a hidden past, and eyes that still hold the weight of what they lost together.

The deeper they dig, the more dangerous the answers become.
Because someone wanted Maya dead.
And if Drew keeps pushing, he might be next.

But he doesn't care.
Not when he's already burning from the inside.
