Completely to ashes??? Probably can’t learn too much, but for something to burn that completely it would likely need some form of accelerant, and that would leave a chemical trace.

Another example I heard once is the path of a fire. Fire needs air, but everyone should know that if a room is on fire that there will be little air. So, a fire starts and it can burn a small area very well, but as it spreads it will only “char” most things as air runs low. This means that when the fire is out there will still be a lot of remnants that are damaged but still intact. If there are multiple locations where things are completely burned then that means there were multiple locations where fire started.
