Remember the Ruin

Dane Talbot uses a world of civil unrest to her advantage, and avenges all those who've done her wrong. In the near dystopian future, a quiet firefighter, Dane Talbot, achieves the coveted position of smokejumper, only to soon realize the nation is filled with domestic terrorism and worsening by the day. She sees an opportunity at last to right the wrongs of her past and seeks revenge. But the lawless world of vigilante justice works both ways. Will Dane achieve her goal or will she regret she ever tried.

The country is coming apart. Dane Talbot has a list. As civil unrest spreads and the rule of law weakens, Dane finally has the opportunity to confront the people who escaped justice—and those who made her who she is. One by one, she begins crossing off their names. But revenge is rarely as clean as it seems. When Dane moves against her next target, the unthinkable happens, and her carefully laid plans begin to unravel. Now she must decide how far she is willing to go—and whether killing a killer makes her any different from the people she hunts.

Taking advantage of the nation's civil unrest to right the wrongs of her past, Dane Talbot finally reveals why and what she's protecting. The pieces all come together for the Remember the Ruin series in the third and final installment, Grand Gesture.
