A revelatory, urgent narrative with national implications, exploring the decline of California’s largest utility company that led to countless wildfires — including the one that destroyed the town of Paradise – and the human cost of infrastructure failure Pacific Gas and Electric was a legacy company built by innovators and visionaries, establishing California as a desirable home and economic powerhouse. In California Burning, Wall Street Journal reporter and Pulitzer finalist Katherine Blunt examines how that legacy fell apart—unraveling a long history of deadly failures in which Pacific Gas and Electric endangered millions of Northern Californians, through criminal neglect of its infrastructure. As PG&E prioritized profits and politics, power lines went unchecked—until a rusted hook purchased for 56 cents in 1921 split in two, sparking the deadliest wildfire in California history. Beginning with PG&E’s public reckoning after the Paradise fire, Blunt chronicles the evolution of PG&E’s shareholder base, from innovators who built some of California's first long-distance power lines to aggressive investors keen on reaping dividends. Following key players through pivotal decisions and legal battles, California Burning reveals the forces that shaped the plight of PG&E: deregulation and market-gaming led by Enron Corp., an unyielding push for renewable energy, and a swift increase in wildfire risk throughout the West, while regulators and lawmakers pushed their own agendas. California Burning is a deeply reported, character-driven narrative, the story of a disaster expanding into a much bigger exploration of accountability. It’s an American tragedy that serves as a cautionary tale for utilities across the nation—especially as climate change makes aging infrastructure more vulnerable, with potentially fatal consequences.

Slow Burn had its impetus in a one-paragraph, 1903 news article, reporting that the city council had voted to plank or gravel Powell Blvd and Milwaukie Ave. after being warned by the Fire Insurance Underwriter’s Board that the city’s continued failure to make the two roads passable during wet weather would result in all structures in that area being uninsurable. This organization’s impact in this instance triggered the author’s research into both the firefighters’ working conditions and the Underwriter’s Board. Slow Burn’s release, on June 26, 2018, marked the 105th David Campbell memorial service at Portland’s Firefighters’ Memorial Park on Portland’s West Burnside. Campbell, Portland’s most beloved fire chief, was killed in 1911 during a Standard Oil tank fire on the city’s east side. He was the first to enter the building, intent on insuring it was safe for his firefighter crew to enter. This seventh book in the award-winning Sage Adair historical mystery series features Campbell and the firefighters he died to protect. Interwoven within this tale of courage and sacrifice is the equally compelling story of how Portland’s black community addressed the growing racism of the nation’s post-reconstruction era. Ordered to a mysterious late night meeting Sage Adair is suddenly thrust onto firefighting’s front lines and into the lives of Portland’s firefighters. Concerned by the reality of early 1900's firefighting, Sage is soon hunting the arsonist who is burning down the city and framing innocent men for his crimes. Relying on original source material, contemporary news reports and firsthand accounts, this is an accurate portrayal of the lives of Portland’s firefighters at the turn of the 20th century as well as a depiction of the black community’s resilience in the face of that era’s rising racism.
