“Miami. Money. Matches.” LOGLINE: A disgraced firefighter and a ruthless arson investigator are forced into an unlikely alliance in a city-wide conspiracy, using fire as both a weapon and a tool to burn down a billionaire’s empire built on ash. PROTAGONISTS RIO CASTELLANO (The Spark) A former hotshot wildfire firefighter from California, disgraced after a mission went wrong—or so they say. Now, he’s a washed-up burnout living in Vice City (Miami), working low-end demolition gigs using controlled burns. He’s quiet, precise, and hates fire with a passion he can’t explain. He knows exactly how to start a fire… and how to make it look like an accident.
Rio shoves Maya behind a dumpster. Bullets ricochet. A gas main ruptures. Flames erupt between them and the shooters.
But Maya Khan is watching from a rooftop across the street. She’s been tracking a pattern—six fires in six months, all tied to Phoenix Holdings. This club was Silas Vane’s last holdout property in the district. Now it’s ash.
Maya looks at Rio. “You light fires. I put them out. But right now, we run.”
Some cities are built on rock and roll. This one will be built on ash.
