Trial by Fire

Something evil lurks in the shadows, watching and waiting.


Private detective Miranda Steele has a reputation for being tough.


But that won’t help her to keep her daughter from searching for her real father. If Mackenzie found the man who raped Miranda fifteen years ago the fallout would be…well, traumatic is an understatement. 


Meanwhile Parker wants to take on a cold case back in Chicago. A house fire that might have been arson. Miranda is less than thrilled, but her sexy investigator husband won’t take no for an answer. 


So the detective duo heads off to the town where Miranda was born. There they learn the victim in the case was a young female art student who was burnt to a crisp in her own bed years ago. Disturbing photos of the body spark a desire in Miranda to find who did it and bring him to justice. 


Suddenly Parker becomes aloof. He’s up to something, Miranda knows. She just can't figure out what. And now she’s beginning to sense the presence of something very, very evil. 


When the cold case starts to dig up painful memories, Miranda sees Parker's secrets could ignite her past into an inferno that might destroy their relationship. She’s too focused on her problems with Parker to see the danger she’s in.


Can she make Parker tell her the truth before it’s too late? Or will they both go up in flames? 


Trial by Fire is the sixth book in the Miranda and Parker Mystery series, a continuation of the popular Miranda Steele stories from bestselling author Linsey Lanier (the Miranda's Rights Mystery series). Buy this chilling, fast-paced thriller for a story readers say they can’t put down.
