In a sizzling thriller from the renowned #1 New York Times bestselling author, Lee Goldberg, vengeance and fear ignite like a wildfire for a seasoned criminal and a relentless arson investigator.

Every October, a fiery hell descends upon Southern California, carried in on the relentless Santa Ana winds, akin to a near-hurricane force, setting ablaze the landscape. Danny Cole, a master thief with a score to settle, hungers for these infernos. He sees them as the perfect cover for a daring heist and a chance to avenge a fallen comrade.

As Malibu becomes the epicenter of the most catastrophic firestorms in Los Angeles’ history, Walter Sharpe, an unyielding arson investigator, and his unpredictable new partner, Andrew Walker, a former US marshal, suspect that these massive conflagrations are no accident. Instead, they suspect they are deliberate acts, serving as a frightening means to an unknown end.

Amidst the uncontrollable blaze, Danny relentlessly pursues his ingenious plan, unaware that Sharpe and Walker are closing in on his trail. When their paths finally converge in the midst of an infernal canyon, everything spirals into chaos, thrusting them into an unexpected showdown against a hidden adversary within an inescapable inferno.
