Fire for Hire

By: M. E. Roche

Narrated by: Margaret E. Roche

In the sleepy town of Jacobsport, California, shadows from the past return. Bob Doyle, once the golden boy of the sheriff's department, who fled under a cloud of suspicion, is found brutally murdered at the isolated fishing camp of Tom King, his former partner. Whispers of corruption and betrayal swirl through the pines when it is learned that Brian Lang, a former Jacobsport firefighter, has also returned.

FBI Special Agent Conor Mayhew has pulled Tom and fellow detective, Nora Brady—who is also a nurse—into a high-stakes game of cat and mouse. Suddenly, the two find themselves deep undercover in Boston, infiltrating a shadowy world where firefighters moonlight as arsonists.

With each flame that rises, so does the tension. As Tom and Nora inch closer to the truth, they'll discover why playing with fire is a game where even heroes can get burned.

Roche weaves multiple subplots, keeping the reader guessing as to the identity of the true culprit. The novel paints a realistic picture of undercover investigation and keeps the reader engaged to the last page.
