The Bradys as Firemen

A city on fire. A detective who refuses to let it burn.

Old King Brady has tracked killers through the darkest corners of New York, but nothing has prepared him for Fall City. Five buildings reduced to ash. A luxury hotel turned crematorium. And somewhere in the smoke, a firebug who leaves no trace—except, impossibly, the bootprint of the city's own fire chief.

Brady goes undercover as a fireman, convinced the arsonist lurks inside the department itself. What he finds is worse. Young Dick Coleman—the chief's own son—circles every crime scene with shifty eyes and convenient alibis. A thug named Boss Peele walks free despite blood money on his hands. And Bristow, the quiet assistant foreman, knows far more than a loyal fireman ever should.

As the fires grow bolder and the body count climbs, Brady works deeper into a web where family loyalty masks betrayal, where every man he fights beside might be the man who lit the match. The incendiaries aren't hiding from the fire department. They are the fire department.

If Brady doesn't expose the gang before they strike again, Fall City burns—and with it, any chance of justice for the innocent lives already lost to the flames.

Can he unmask the firebug before the whole city becomes ash?
