As things heat up in Franklin's life, his desire to do good deeds changes into a dangerous obsession. - Orca Book Publishers
Ever since he was small, Franklin has been soothed by fire.
Staring into the flames helps Franklin forget his problems. And right now, he's got a lot to forget. Franklin's mother has left the family home to be with her hairdresser boyfriend. Franklin's father, the mayor of Montreal West, is too busy worrying about his public image to do anything about the family. As a rash of local fires competes with upcoming elections for media attention, Franklin's father has to work hard to keep the public happy. And Franklin has to reconsider his romance with fire.
