Elizabeth and Ben’s marriage is strained. After years of marriage, they are planning to divorce. The morning after they decide, they wake up to a fire threatening their house and their community of Nelson.
As the community is in danger, Elizabeth, as a private investigator, tries to investigate the cause of the fire. When the accusations point to the teenage son of her former friend, Elizabeth is torn. Couple that with all the emotions swirling between herself and Ben and the encroaching fire, tension is high.
I liked this story, but there were some gaps that I don’t feel were adequately explained. The ending was an interesting twist.
