The Fear of Fire

As a teenager, Hannah Jacobs was excited for a sleepover with her older sister Casey, but a blizzard altered their plans. Sometime that night, an unknown killer broke into Casey’s apartment in Laramie, Wyoming, and brutally stabbed her multiple times, leaving her for dead.

Ten years later, Hannah is still haunted by the murder of her sister that fateful night, and with no viable suspects the case has long turned cold, nearly forgotten by everyone except her. Determined to uncover the truth, Hannah shutters her Private Investigation firm and travels to Laramie. With the help of a local amateur sleuth, Hannah discovers a series of murders linked to her sister, and evidence of a possible serial killer targeting young woman throughout the region.

As she delves deeper into the unsolved murders, Hannah’s life is thrust into jeopardy, and she finds herself in a race to find the killer before she becomes his next victim.

What Readers and Reviewers Are Saying About The Fear Of Fire:

“The Fear of Fire is book 2 in the fear series and can be read as a stand-alone. The author wrote an engaging, tragic murder mystery that I thought was well done. The novel gave me the feel of Sharp Objects by Gillian Flynn. Many elements and scenarios drew me in and made me cringe. The MC drives the narrative and I was addicted to her determination to solve this crime. I liked the writing and this author is quickly becoming a favorite of mine.” ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

“Private Investigator Hannah Jacobs closes her office and travels to Laramie, Wyoming to try to solve the savage murder of her older sister Casey many years earlier. Hannah is a troubled woman and the hope is that she will be able to put this murder behind her either by solving the crime or by knowing she did her best in an attempt to solve it.

I’ll say no more about the plot as I don’t want to write any spoilers. There are not many surprises or twists but there are thrills and plenty of danger.” ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

“Batten down the hatches it’s going to be a bumpy ride! There are more twists and turns in this story than in a pretzel. The characters are realistic, multi-dimensional, and broken. Hannah has been looking for her sister’s killer for years. Because of that and the stress of Casey’s unsolved murder, Hannah has more than her fair share of demons. To try and cope she has become a cutter. As much for her sanity as for her search for justice, Hannah has decided she has to solve her sister’s case and won’t give up until she does. She is truly a flawed, broken heroine. But I like her just the same.” ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

“The Fear of Fire is the absolute, blistering harrowing sequel to The Fear of Winter and is the story of Hannah Jacobs sister Casey’s brutal rape and murder and Hannah’s dogged determination to find the disgusting bastard that ruined her life and make him pay. As the haunting true surrounding Casey’s death comes to life; it means that she was among a lot of victims by his individual that has managed to keep off the radar for a long time. Finding the truth leaves its scars upon the family and friends of the victims left behind.” ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

“What a rollercoaster. I really enjoyed this book. Hannah is looking for the man who killed her sister 10 years ago. The main character is flawed enough to be a regular person, not a super perfect investigator. I’m looking forward to reading more from this author.” ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

“O. M. G. Holy crap what a bloody book!” ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
