While investigating a house fire, Detective Miles Tucker uncovers a similar case twenty years prior. Digging deeper, Miles learns that a survivor from the earlier fire might have some answers to his questions. As a boy, Devin Treadwell survived a fire that wiped out his entire family. The trauma he suffered left him in a mental institution, but he has since made a full recovery and, though partially deaf and mute, now lives an independent life as a music teacher. Devin's life is disrupted when the handsome Miles suspects him of being a serial arsonist. But he wasn't the only survivor. A boy named Sebastian who had been adopted by Devon's family also survived the blaze. Then an attempt is made on Devin's life. Can Miles keep Devin safe from an arsonist who will stop at nothing to silence him? Or will the attraction between them jeopardize the investigation?

Fire Triangle

For a moment, nobody moved, then Sebastian snatched the squirrel from Josh’s hand and threw it to the ground. And before Devin or Josh could do anything, Sebastian had picked up a big rock and smashed it down on the squirrel. Blood spattered out in all directions and Devin screamed soundlessly.


Josh glared at Sebastian. “What is wrong with you?” he yelled before running off.


Devin froze, cold dread creeping into him.


Sebastian only shrugged. “I was just trying to help.” He took Devin’s hand and pulled him toward their house.


Devin went along with him. He had a feeling that Sebastian wouldn’t like it if he didn’t.
