Jessie Lewis has been an outcast in her small town of Eagle Falls ever since she accused fire chief and town favorite Marcus of domestic violence. Forced by her ex and the town sheriff to drop the allegations, she has lived in fear ever since in a small cabin in the woods. Now the town is threatened by a wildfire raging in the nearby national park and an arsonist is taking advantage. When two families that are tied to Jessie are killed in their burning homes, she knows she is being framed, and no one in town will believe that she's innocent, especially the town sheriff. And the more the town focus is on her, she knows more people will be in danger while a killer goes free.
I love that the story is set with the looming threat of a wildfire. It just makes the story even more tense as the whole town is in danger, not just the victims of the arsonist. I felt so bad for Jessie being victimized by the whole town for reporting her abuse. She really had no one to turn to for help or friendship. Just when I thought I had things figured out there was a new twist to the plot. This book was a flaming hot ride!
