I make it my business to know what’s really going on in Ridge City.

For the last five years, I’ve been running an anonymous investigative reporting blog to reveal the true dirty deeds in this town. Only a handful of people know my online identity as Harbinger—including my pal Colin, who recruits me to join a special RCPD program to dig deep into the truth, and my longtime research partner Elodie—who I also happen to be secretly in love with.

A string of arsons cropping up all of a sudden has roused the suspicion of both the cops and Elodie’s brother, a firefighter, so with the help of the Program leaders, I go undercover in the fire academy.

If I’m going to uncover the real scoop, I’ve got to walk into the flames…even if it means getting burned.

Elodie

I’ve always taken my role as Khalil’s research partner seriously. I’m one of only two people who know his online identity, and his trust means everything to me.

In fact…he means everything to me.

But when he drops a bomb on me—that he’s going into the fire academy—I’m shocked. This new career aspiration has triggered a ton of painful memories for me, and I know there’s something deeper going on.

I won’t stop until I get to the bottom of his secret, no matter how far away he tries to keep me.
