Baptism of Fire

Welcome to Perdition Falls, New York: where arson is considered a recreational activity, the abnormally hot climate makes everything unbearable, and according to one origin story shrouded in myth and legend, our city is an actual Hellmouth. I've learned those infernal tales aren't just a cheap marketing ploy to lure in tourists and paranormal frauds. It's Hell. We're literally sitting on top of Hell. Fire, brimstone, actual demons--the works. When an incendiary--the name other pyromancers have given to the infestation of Hellfire-wielding demons--kills my closest friend and fellow firefighter, I'm left with a rare power I barely understand. It's the only reason I survived. It also makes me a target, something to be coveted by those who know Perdition Falls' most dangerous, well-kept secrets. While a demonic arsonist puts the city's resident pyromancers on edge, I'm reunited with my long-lost childhood friend Javier, who shares the same strange power that runs through my veins. With him, I find my footing in a place I thought I knew and buried memories from our past start to resurface. As our ragtag group comes together, we become the last defense against the incendiaries' corrupt hold on the city...one completely disastrous mission at a time. But taking down this homicidal demon with a flair for pyromania might mean trusting one of their own.
