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.Good Chrisian novel. I would read another book of Grady's. Firefighter solves arson mystery.The writing is excellent. Unlike many books written in the first person, the scene is set vividly, with information being introduced at just the right time. Literary devices such as alliteration remain in the background, supporting a fast-paced and hard-to-predict plot. The action takes off in the first chapter, but well-placed chapter breaks allow the reader to take a break. The descriptions of life as a firefighter are excellent, as would be expected from an author who is an experienced firefighter.The book has a significant but not overwhelming Christian bent. The characters show a realistic approach to spiritual growth.I look forward to reading more from this author.
