Friends on Fire — Dale Whisman

Start with one Private Investigator who is afraid of fire, add a beautiful psychopath who gets her kicks watching people burn, toss in a former CIA agent accused of treason and top off the mix with a couple of successful but corrupt businessmen who got their start by smuggling opium out of Vietnam, and you've cooked up a deadly smorgasbord of violence and revenge enough to satisfy the most ravenous hunger for action.
