The Rural Arsonist
For seven years, the FBI hunted her. Towns whispered her name. Forests carried her heat. But the girl who lit the fires - the one they called The Rural Arsonist - was never caught.
Lucy Maddox didn't start the blaze. She was born in it, raised by a mother who believed fire was justice and that silence was survival. But when a new investigation reopens old burns, Lucy finds herself at the center of a reckoning she can't outrun - and doesn't want to.
As agents close in and past sins crawl out of the ash, Lucy must decide whether to keep running, keep burning, or face the one woman who taught her everything: the mother who lit the first match.
In a story laced with smoke, memory, and fury, The Rural Arsonist is a slow-burn thriller about legacy, violence, and the moment a girl decides her fire belongs to her - or to no one at all.
