But mortality draws even closer when it becomes clear that the crash that landed their father in a coma was no accident and Dante’s recklessness has placed them all in real danger.

Because everything burns. “A fast-paced thriller that will have readers asking whether the ends justify the means if there is no end in sight. . .
