CRIME UNSOLVED (A Buck Taylor Novel)
A raging wildfire. A murdered victim. A conspiracy buried in the ashes.


When a catastrophic forest fire tears through Colorado’s remote Rio Blanco County, the peaceful White River wilderness becomes a crime scene. What begins as a devastating natural disaster quickly spirals into something far darker—greed, murder, and a deadly cover‑up tied to a controversial land swap between the Forest Service and a powerful developer. At ground zero: a luxury fishing lodge reduced to smoldering ruin.

Colorado Bureau of Investigation Agent Buck Taylor is pulled into the inferno when the governor orders him to lead the arson investigation. But the deeper Buck digs, the less the evidence adds up. A radical environmentalist group seems like the obvious culprit—too obvious. And when a body is discovered in the ashes, Buck knows he’s no longer hunting an arsonist. He’s hunting a killer.

As Buck navigates a secretive mountain community of survivalists, hidden agendas, and a growing list of suspects, he uncovers a chilling pattern: this wildfire may not be the only fire intentionally set. With time running out and the threat of another blaze looming, Buck must expose the truth before an entire community is consumed.

Perfect for fans of C.J. Box, Craig Johnson, Michael Connelly, and Nevada Barr, this gripping crime thriller blends wildfire suspense, forensic investigation, and rugged Colorado atmosphere into a page‑turner you won’t forget.
