A gritty crime noir from writer Ollie Masters & artist Pierluigi Minotti stakes its claim in a coal mining town perpetually on fire!

Fleeing a botched robbery in New York City, a junkie, her dying partner, and a dementia-ridden old man pull into a coal mining ghost town in central Pennsylvania. Obscured by the caustic mists spewed forth by the coal-seam fire from the 1960s–still burning–Trier is the perfect place to lay low, score a fix, and take a hostage... or is it? As the caustic origins of a town of fire are revealed, along with the guilt, fear, and penance tied to the past, and those who stayed in Trier, they will discover a horrific truth while on the run from death. Acclaimed crime writer Ollie Masters (Snow Blind, The Kitchen) and artist Pierluigi Minotti (Lost Falls) transport readers into a bleak, violent world, perfect for fans of Gideon Falls and Stray Bullets. Collects Slow Burn #1-5.
