Reseña del libro "Dame's Flame Games (en Inglés)"
DAME'S FLAME GAMES Damian "Dame" Culver has spent years chasing a dream that never came true. He wanted to become a firefighter. He applied to department after department, endured the testing, interviews, and rejection, and watched others earn the badge he believed belonged to him. But rejection didn't extinguish his obsession. It transformed it. Unable to enter the fire service, Dame begins studying it from the outside. He collects firefighter memorabilia, follows departments and firefighters, memorizes traditions, studies emergency responses, and becomes consumed by a fictional television series about a fire department. Soon, the line between what he watches and what he wants to become begins to disappear. Then the fires begin. At first, they appear to be unrelated incidents. But Fire Marshal Jack Reynolds notices something unusual. Battalion Chief Marcus Cole begins to see connections. Fire Investigator Sarah Whitaker discovers disturbing similarities between the incidents and episodes of the television series that inspired Dame. When FBI Special Agent Claire Donovan joins the investigation, the case takes an unexpected turn. The fires aren't random. Someone is recreating stories. And someone is watching the firefighters respond. As the incidents escalate, investigators uncover a disturbing pattern connecting Dame's history of rejected firefighter applications, his obsession with the fire service, television episodes, and the departments he once hoped would accept him. Each incident appears to be another episode in a story only Dame understands. But Dame isn't simply trying to start fires. He's trying to become part of the story. To him, firefighters are heroes. Firehouses are families. Emergency calls are opportunities. And the brotherhood he was never allowed to join has become an audience he desperately wants to impress. With every new incident, Dame moves closer to what he believes will be his greatest performance. The FBI and the fire department must determine not only who is behind the fires, but what Dame intends to create for his final episode. Because the ultimate target may not be a building. It may be the firefighters themselves. Dame's Flame Games is a psychological fire-service thriller about obsession, rejection, identity, brotherhood, and the dangerous consequences of confusing admiration with belonging. As reality collides with fiction, one man's desire to become a hero threatens to turn the people he idolizes into unwilling characters in his deadly game. Some people watch the fire. Dame wants to be part of it.
