Christmas Burns
(2025)(The sixth book in the Sheriff of Misty Hollow series)
A novel by Cynthia Hickey
When Christmas trees ignite across Misty Hollow, Sheriff Shea Callahan must stop an arsonist determined to turn joy into ashes.
The holidays in Misty Hollow are supposed to shine with joy—until Christmas trees start going up in flames.
Sheriff Shea Callahan and Deputy Trevor Bolton are thrust into chaos when an arsonist begins terrorizing their small town, torching homes, stealing presents, and leaving the community drowning in fear instead of holiday cheer. What begins as scattered vandalism quickly escalates into a series of dangerous, calculated fires that feel less like random destruction—and more like a vendetta written in smoke.
As whispers spread and suspects pile up, Shea investigates a reckless teen caught with lighter fluid, a bitter shopkeeper desperate to save his failing business, and a struggling father hiding stolen toys. But none of the pieces fit. Then the trail leads to a man consumed by grief, haunted by a tragedy the town tried to bury—and bound by a vow to ruin every Christmas that followed.
With each blaze burning hotter and the mayor demanding results, Shea and Trevor must work against the clock to stop a grieving father turned avenger before his final inferno consumes the very heart of Misty Hollow.
Packed with holiday suspense, small-town secrets, slow-burn romance, and edge-of-your-seat thrills, Christmas Inferno (or Silent Nights Burning) is a perfect read for fans of Lisa Jackson, Melinda Leigh, and Allison Brennan who love a chilling mystery with a festive twist.
Genre: Romantic Suspense
