Lake City Heroes: Book 3
Publication Date: January 21, 2025
She’s out for justice. But the arsonist she’s tracking is out for retribution.
Now the fire marshal of Lake City, Jesslyn McCormick is determined to find the person who started the fire that robbed her of her family when she was just seven years old. As the twentieth anniversary of the tragedy approaches, a string of fires—including at Jesslyn’s church—brings up all those old feelings and offers new evidence.
Because church fires are considered a hate crime, FBI Special Agent Nathan Carlisle is called in to work with local law enforcement. Nathan has his own past—one he’d prefer not to revisit. And focusing on helping Jesslyn track down the arsonist is a great distraction.
As both the case and the chemistry between Jesslyn and Nathan heat up, memories will come flooding in from the past to bump up against hopes for the future. And when Jesslyn comes face-to-face with her worst nightmare, she’ll have to confront her fears and rely on Nathan and her community of friends in order to survive.
An arson fire at her church pairs two determined investigators, both of whom have troubled histories when it comes to fire.
Author Lynette Eason delivers a pulse-pounding story of suspense with Serial Burn. As the third installment of the Lake City Heroes series can easily be read as a standalone, but you’ll enjoy this one so much that you will want more.
Deputy State Fire Marshal Jesslyn McCormick is still haunted by the fire that claimed her family two decades ago. Her determination to find the culprit fuels her work. Joining her on the church fire investigation is FBI Special Agent Nathan Carlisle. They have an electric chemistry, but they are reluctant to take action.
As a Christian suspense, the story successfully packages high-octane adventure with solid romance. Jesslyn faces the toughest challenge of her career, hitting her on a personal level. The support characters add an extra layer of appeal with their back-and-forth banter.
Serial Burn pits a strong female character seeking Justice against a wily arsonist bent on destruction.
