A Burning Desire by J. R. Lindermuth

Sixth in the Sticks Hetrick crime series

The past comes back to haunt former police chief Daniel “Sticks” Hetrick and his protégé, Officer Flora Vastine as an outbreak of arson shakes residents of rural Swatara Creek, Pennsylvania.

At first, the minor nature of the fires inclines authorities to see them as pranks, possibly the work of juveniles. Then, tension increases in the wake of a murder at the site of one fire and an increase in the value of targets.

A BURNING DESIRE is available from Amazon, Barnes & Noble and Whiskey Creek Press.
