Still Burning

In Still County, some things won't stay buried. Others won't stop burning.

When a mild-mannered accountant is found gruesomely murdered in his modest home, Sheriff Rita Jonas knows it’s no random crime. The victim had political ties to powerful men that could unravel what's left of Still County's fragile peace.

Clues lead back to Tom Gabriel, the town's imprisoned former kingmaker who still wields influence from behind bars. Now, Rita must walk a razor's edge: digging into Gabriel's past while trying not to destroy her future with his son, Cash.

Sparks fly in Rita's personal life, as a string of suspicious fires spread across the county. Each blaze is more dangerous than the last. Someone's sending a message.

With Deputy Jason Perry at her side and the town's pressure mounting, Rita must unmask a killer, track down an arsonist, and decide just how much she's willing to risk for love—and for justice.

Still Burning is the third book in the Still County Thrillers series by Lauren Street. Perfect for fans of slow-burn suspense, buried secrets, and sheriffs who don't flinch.
