Blue smoke

A woman dares to face the fie--and fight back ... The blaze that night at her family's pizzeria changed young Reena Hale's life in more ways than one. As Reena gazed into the fire, beheld its brutal beauty and destructive power, her destiny began to take shape. She would study, struggle, and walk the gauntlet to undestand and master its terrible force--and one day become the investigator herself. But she is not the only one fascinated by the flames. Someone else sees their power as well--and is obsessed not with conquering the fire but with controlling it, owning it, using it to exact vicious revenge ... Sometimes Reena's job seems like a snap compared to her love life. One relationship after another has ended for her--some in tragedy or drama, some not with a bang but with a whimper. Then she meets Bo Goodnight, who seems different. He's been trying to find Reena for years, and now that she is close enough to touch, he has no intention of letting go. Nor does the man who has begun to haunt Reena's life--with taunting phone calls and a string of horrifying crimes. And as Reena tries desperately to trace the origins, she will step into the worst inferno she has ever faced ...

  • "The blaze that night at her family's pizzeria changed young Reena Hale's life in more ways than one. Neighbors and relatives would pull together to help the Hales get through the crisis and rebuild. The Baltimore authorities would arrest the arsonist responsible. But as Reena gazed into the fire, beheld its brutal beauty and destructive power, her destiny began to take shape. She would study, struggle and walk the gauntlet to understand and master its terrible force - and one day become an investigator herself. But she is not the only one fascinated by the flames. Someone else sees their power as well - and is obsessed not with conquering the fire but with controlling it, owning it, and using it to exact vicious revenge. When Reena achieves her goal and joins the arson unit, her strength and wits are constantly tested, though sometimes the job seems like a snap compared with her love life. One relationship after another has ended for her - some in tragedy or drama, some not with a bang but with a whimper. And she can't always blame them - after all, a soot-caked woman barking orders and smelling of smoke isn't the biggest turn-on in the world. Then she meets Bo Goodnight, who seems different. He's been trying to find Reena for years, and now that she is close enough to touch, he has no intention of letting go. Nor does the man who has begun to haunt Reena's life - with taunting phone calls and a string of horrifying crimes. And as Reena tries desperately to trace the origins - of the calls, the fires, the hatred aimed in her direction - she will step into the worst inferno she has ever faced.--Jacket."

Now, as part of the arson unit, she is called in on a series of suspicious fires that seem to be connected - not just to each other, but to her. And as danger ignites all around her, Reena must rely on experience and instinct to catch a dangerous madman who will not stop until everything she loves has gone up in smoke."
