Book Nook: Flashover, by Victoria Carr

Vicki Carr has been investigating suspicious fires in the Dayton area for many years. Her thorough understanding of arson informs her debut novel "Flashover."

As the story begins a building is burning and this blaze has many telltale indications that it was intentionally set. Fire investigator Carly Crinshaw is on the case and we quickly find ourselves engulfed in her investigation.

"Flashover" is crime fiction. There's the crime of arson and the additional possibility of a homicide. As Crinshaw digs through the steaming rubble for clues she unearths a jagged and nefarious plot. Carr has written a real page burner!
