Based on The Journal's of Fletcher Jones Book 6: The Woman Who Burned Twice.
When a crowded downtown streetcar erupts into flames on a busy Saturday afternoon, Detective Fletcher Jones is called to what appears to be a tragic transportation accident. But among the wreckage lie two dead women, a mysterious brass key, and evidence that suggests the fire was anything but accidental.
As Fletcher and his sharp-witted partner Sue Richards dig deeper, they uncover a tangled web of corruption stretching from the city's transit company to powerful political figures. One victim, Caroline Mercer, was a respected widow carrying secret legal documents. The other, initially known only as a burned and unidentifiable passenger, turns out to be Lydia Vale, a former transit employee who had spent months gathering evidence of bribery, fraud, and political payoffs.
What begins as a routine investigation quickly escalates into a deadly conspiracy. Witnesses start turning up dead, evidence disappears, and powerful men become desperate to keep decades of corruption buried. As Fletcher follows a trail of forged records, hidden lockers, secret meetings, and murder, he discovers that the trolley explosion was never the crime, it was the cover-up.
Set against the backdrop of a city where power protects itself and justice is rarely complete, The Woman Who Burned Twice is a gripping noir mystery filled with corruption, betrayal, political intrigue, and unforgettable characters. In the sixth installment of the Fletcher Jones series, Joe Schipani delivers a fast-paced detective thriller that asks a haunting question: how many lives are worth sacrificing to protect the truth from coming to light?
