Touched by Fire

Southern California's lethal fire season consumes tinder-dry hills, torches homes, and destroys dreams. But now one woman is about to awake to a living nightmare. . . .

Lilah Graham--brilliant research scientist by day, driven to link violent behavior to a mutant gene; sexual compulsive by night, desperate to release the demons of her soul. Why is she suddenly the target of an ingenious firebomber?

Arson investigator Dan Merrick knows what makes the twisted mind of a pyromaniac tick. Overwhelmed by the raging brushfires, he finds himself drawn to the seductive Dr. Graham like a moth to a flame--where, in the heat of passion, a killer plots to strike with a burning vengeance. . . .

An inferno of sex and danger, action and desire, TOUCHED BY FIRE is a taut, fast-paced thriller that races to a final, fiery climax.
