Firefighting burns in Aidan O'Neill's blood. The son of a
fireman, O'Neill has a sixth sense about fire and often takes
dangerous risks. When one act of disobedience nearly gets a rookie
killed, O'Neill is suspended. His weeks off are supposed to be a
time to reflect but instead he escapes to Mexico, where another
rash act of bravery actually kills him. But only for a few
minutes.
Called back to Reno, he's now haunted by visions of hell and
paralyzed in the face of fire. And at the worst time, because an
arsonist is targeting Reno. With a growing love interest with one
of the investigators complicating everything, Aidan must discover
where his trust rests as the fires creep ever closer.
