🔍Book Blurb:

As a former smokejumper, arson investigator Bri Tucker knows her way around fires. But after a mysterious blaze takes the life of a former colleague, Bri inherits a curious puzzle from him that raises questions about several fiery deaths. Someone, however, doesn't want her picking up where he left off in search of answers.

When she teams up with ATF Special Agent Marc Davis to solve the puzzle, the danger escalates. But will they manage to track down the person behind the mysterious deaths before their budding romance--and maybe even their lives--go up in flames?

The book blurb and cover seen above came from Amazon.com, where you can sample the first 3+ chapters.

_________________________________________

Into the Fire is the most recently released book by Irene Hannon, one of my all-time favorite suspense authors. 

Prologue Opening Lines: 

FIRE WAS CLEANSING. SACRIFICIAL, ALMOST.

And soon . . . very soon . . . the flames would come.

But first, my souvenir.

That opening really grabbed my attention and told me right away that this is a first-person account of a killer, likely a serial killer that loves fire, who's about to do something bad, really bad . . . Such a creepy scene!

Chapter One Opening Line: 

ARSON INVESTIGATORS WEREN'T SUPPOSED TO DIE IN FIRES.

The first chapter shifts to a third-person perspective, five months after the prologue scene, now following the investigation of a very suspicious house fire in which an experienced arson investigator was killed . . .  Great intro! I'M HOOKED and will be posting my full review of this book on Goodreads as soon as I finish reading it.

I received a free copy of this book from Revell, which I am SO grateful for, and these are my honest thoughts.
