Fire Triangle

While investigating a house fire, Detective Miles Tucker uncovers a similar case twenty years prior. Digging deeper, Miles learns that a survivor from the earlier fire might have some answers to his questions. As a boy, Devin Treadwell survived a fire that wiped out his entire family. The trauma he suffered left him in a mental institution, but he has since made a full recovery and, though partially deaf and mute, now lives an independent life as a music teacher. Devin's life is disrupted when the handsome Miles suspects him of being a serial arsonist. But he wasn't the only survivor. A boy named Sebastian who had been adopted by Devon's family also survived the blaze. Then an attempt is made on Devin's life. Can Miles keep Devin safe from an arsonist who will stop at nothing to silence him? Or will the attraction between them jeopardize the investigation?

That night, after they were done at the police station, Miles picked up his belongings from Blake’s house and dropped them at Devin’s. He had told Jeff that now there was a real suspect connected directly to Devin, their sole witness, someone should be there with him.

But nobody had told Devin. He frowned as he looked uneasily at Miles. He turned to Jeff but Jeff just smiled. His head tilted toward Miles as he said, “Why don’t you ask him yourself?”

Why do you have to stay here? You’re not still thinking of me as your suspect, are you?

Miles lifted his eyebrows at Jeff and shook head as the doctor explained what Devin said. “You tell him, man. I need to go check the house before we all come in,” said Miles and walked on without looking back at Devin.
