This killer is setting the world on fire. One house at a time. Special Agent Amelia Storm thought she’d seen the darkest corners of humanity after facing a killer who exploited social media to broadcast his twisted “message.” But her latest case in the FBI Violent Crimes Unit plunges her into a new nightmare—one that catapults her from the frying pan into the fire. Literally. In the dead of night, an affluent Chicago neighborhood becomes a hellscape as an arsonist claims an entire family, leaving nothing but charred remains and unanswered questions. This is no isolated incident. The fire-starter has struck three times before, turning homes into death traps—all within a year’s time. Four infernos, fifteen victims, nine dead, and six barely clinging to life. But the most chilling detail? The exits were meticulously sealed, forcing the victims to meet a fiery end or fall to their death. Amelia’s gut tells her this isn’t just the work of an arsonist. He’s a serial killer. And he uses fire as his weapon. At each scene, a sinister, occult-like symbol taunts investigators, a twisted signature of a killer who craves recognition. With every new fire, Amelia races to uncover the deadly pattern binding the victims, knowing this monster’s hunger for destruction is growing—and he won’t stop until his dark message is seared into the world. From the wickedly dark minds of Mary Stone and Amy Wilson comes Storm’s Symbol, book thirteen of the Amelia Storm FBI Series. Where there’s smoke, there’s fire. And sometimes, the twisted mind of a killer.Show book
