In the blazing heat of a scorching Texas summer, when all the fountains in Dallas erupt into towering infernos, I'm certain it's the work of the djinn I'm after. But as I close in on him, a different kind of fire consumes me—and the heat I'm feeling isn't just from the Texas sun.
An internal fever intensifies with every clue I uncover, every shadowed alley I brave. This isn't just a chase; it's a descent into a fever dream where the boundary between reality and delusion shimmers and fades.
The closer I get to the djinn, the more fiercely this fever rages within me, threatening to devour me from the inside out, and it soon becomes clear that this isn't just any hunt.
With the city’s water transformed into flames and the lines between hunter and hunted blurring, I realize this prey is more treacherous than I anticipated. Because this djinn isn't merely evading me—he's targeting me.
Now, I'm not just hunting to protect the city from going up in flames—I'm racing to save myself, and everyone I love.
