Nights on Fire

In the mid 1980s, Kobock, a hard-drinking ATF agent, constantly in the doghouse of hostile, incompetent management and an indifferent bureaucracy, is assigned a dead end arson homicide wherein a young female victim is tired to a bed and burned alive.

What appears to be another venture into frustration quickly becomes a sordid, violent trail of sin and degeneracy which wends its way though the Dallas underbelly of crime.

In the end, he stumbles into a conclusion so bizarre and twisted that even his cynical mind cannot fully understand.
