Through the fire

TO: ALCRANE@CSSENTINEL.ORGFROM: COLLEENMONTGOMERY@CSSENTINEL.ORG Boss,I'm finishing my article about the Vance Memorial Hospital fire. No fatalities, although several people, including firefighter Lucia Vance and visiting wildfire expert Raphael Wright, were treated for smoke inhalation. I'm trying to stay unbiased—Lucia's a friend—but she's under investigation for disobeying orders, and I think Chief O'Brien is casting suspicion on her to cover himself. Word is he has some hefty debts. Raphael is only too willing to help clear Lucia's name—romance is brewing. It seems as if the Vances are being targeted...but by whom, and why?
