Family, loyalty, and survival—when the flames rise, how far will you go?
Roman Carruthers walked away from his small-town past, but when his father’s car crash lands him in a coma, he’s forced back to Jefferson Run. There, he finds his sister, Neveah, barely holding the family crematorium together, and his reckless younger brother, Dante, drowning in debt to dangerous men.
Roman has money. He has connections. But what he doesn’t have is time. Because this wasn’t just an accident—someone wants his family destroyed. And when his last bargaining chip goes up in smoke, there’s only one thing left to trade: himself.
As Neveah digs into the mystery of their mother’s disappearance, Roman plays a deadly game with real gangsters.
Because in Jefferson Run, everything burns.
