Before the fire, it was the perfect place to raise a family. An idyllic community where neighbours knew one another...or so they thought.

Jenna Abbott's life went up in flames even before the fire started in Tenmile, Oregon. She was still coping with her husband's shocking affair — and the revelation he got a much younger woman pregnant — when the fire finally died down and Ryan was among the missing.

Chelsea Goddard still can't explain how her estranged husband got back to Tenmile from out of the country the day of the fire, and she also can't shake the nagging feeling that the secrets they've kept between them for the last twenty years might just be the tinder that made it all burn.

Morgan White knew getting involved with a married older man was wrong, then she got pregnant. She might be the only one who knows the darkest secrets of some of Tenmile's leading citizens...but people would have to stop treating her like a pariah to hear them.

Alex Coleman doesn't remember anything that happened the day of the fire, why she was found wandering on a rural road, alone...or why she has dreams of standing in the middle of scorched earth, holding a book of matches.
