The Blaze
Two extraordinary acts of arson, separated by more than a decade, power this suspense-laden literary thriller. Only one man knows the connection between the seemingly unrelated fires -- if only he could remember it.
Having lost much of his memory from a traumatic brain injury sustained in Iraq, army veteran Matthew Rose travels back to Montana after his father's death to settle his affairs, and hopefully to solve the mysteries of his own past.
On his first night back in the town where he grew up, Matthew witnesses a house fire. A local college student dies inside. For Matthew, the blaze sparks a memory of an unsolved crime from long ago. As he delves deeper looking for clues, he uncovers a series of long-buried mysteries, and a ruthless act of murder.
