As reported by The Tracking Board, Hill’s fourth novel is currently on selective submission for film and television rights, and Sean Daily is handling the rights through Hotchkiss & Associates.
Set for release next April, The Fireman takes place in a world overtaken by a deadly and dramatic new virus, centered on a young woman who is determined to live long enough to deliver her baby. But when all it takes is a spark to start a deadly blaze, she’s going to need some help from a mysterious fireman.
