Trial by Fire — David W. Robinson

A house fire on a sweltering summer morning comes as no surprise, but when a body is found in the ruins, the Sanford police soon have the prime suspect in their sights. Evidence mounts, an arrest is made, and Joe Murray is at his wits' end before helps comes from an unexpected quarter.

How could all the evidence be wrong? There's only one way. It was carefully constructed to point in the wrong direction, and Joe and his partner in crime-detection must pull out all the stops to prove it.

The fourteenth Sanford 3rd Age Club Mystery, and it's Joe's toughest, most dangerous case yet.
