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

Sebastian swept a glance around Devin’s pristine apartment and chuckled quietly. How stupid they were to think that they had been cautious in keeping Devin’s place a secret from him, and that hiding Devin someplace else could keep him safe. They also hadn’t stationed a cop to watch the apartment. Sebastian realized they mustn’t feel a need to do that since Devin wasn’t there anyway. They must have thought Sebastian was still hiding somewhere in the woods, when he had been much closer than they thought. He knew about the detectives. He knew about the older man who seemed to be very close to Devin. Sebastian also knew that they had been to Devin’s apartment to pick up clothes or water the flowers. Following someone around was easy, especially when they didn’t realize that they were being stalked.


And Sebastian knew sooner or later Devin must return to his apartment because who wanted to stay in a mental hospital, no matter how homey it looked?
