"The wait is over! Tyler Zahn is back, trapped in a mountain lodge with a raging fire outside and a murderer inside." -Gail Ward Olmsted, bestselling author of the Miranda Quinn Legal Twist series
After his over-zealous efforts to find his missing Search & Rescue partner fail, Air Force veteran Tyler Zahn is on the outs with Chaffee County law enforcement. When valuable oil paintings are stolen during a heist on a high-altitude pass in the Colorado Rockies, Zahn is ordered to steer clear of the investigation.
But when Laura Coker Long--the artist he's trying to date--has her most famous work stolen too, Zahn can't help but get involved. Trapped by a wildfire in a mountain retreat with a group of art patrons, Laura and her family, and an FBI agent, Zahn's search for the thief is hindered by more heinous crimes.
Zahn can't afford to screw up again. But he has no choice. If he doesn't step forward and lead, people may die.
