The show is based on the truth.media podcast series Firebug, which told the story of a fictional serial arsonist who lights up southern California.
Smoke sees detectives tackle a ever-growing “fire plague,” that has suspicious circumstances written all over it. Delving deep into the psychology of arson, viewers quickly learn that the strong compulsion to start a fire is much harder to extinguish than the fire itself.
