Read the very first Canadian firefighter novel. Fire Captain Gerry Ormond is launched to national prominence due to a daring rescue and receives the prestigious Governor General's Medal of Valor. He visits his hometown after a twenty year absence and unwittingly unleashes a killer, an arsonist who seeks revenge for a crime Gerry committed as a teenager in a renegade fraternity. He meets Karen, a high school sweetheart, igniting an obsession he may not be able to control and whose husband looks good for a recent arson/murder. Nick Modano, ex-frat president, now a dangerous drug dealer, is the only other person alive who participated in the old crime with Gerry. Nick will never forget, or forgive, Gerry running out on him during their old crime. When Nick dies in an explosion, Samantha `Sam' Markham, a crack fire investigator, begins to hound Gerry, believing his past is connected to the present crime wave. For Gerry, the almost forgotten past has risen from the ooze and taken on a life of its own. As a man used to chaos control, he is powerless to close the door to his evil past. Admitting his old crime will help track down the arsonist but it could also destroy him. Old friends are now enemies. It's a tightrope he walks in a town that wants to destroy him.
