The time of the fire

Kavanagh, Emma2025
Book
On the anniversary of her mother's death, CEO-in-waiting Robyn Sandoval goes for a run. She knows her father - a local fire fighting hero - is desperate to speak to her, to tell her something he wants her to know before she starts her new job leading the corporation that owns most of their town, Destino. But when Robyn arrives, she finds him dead. Meanwhile, after months of drought, a forest fire ignites on the mountain ridge looming over the town. Destino has never burned; its unique position protected by the seemingly insurmountable barrier of the ridge, a favourable wind direction, & a belief long held by the community that they are safe. Robyn is shaken to the core by her father's death, & her life is shattered in two, the fabric of her reality shorn by the sheer force of her grief. The next time she wakes, everything is different: her father is alive, & there's no sign of the fire on the ridge.
