Fiction | Mystery
Ross River is a town at the end of the Yukon's loneliest
road. It's the perfect hiding place for Miles McEwan, the
town's hard-drinking, fist-fighting fire chief. No one
gets close to Miles, except the blackened spectre of a
young man only he can see, a haunting reminder of the
forest fire that scarred Miles's face and psyche. But the
slow burn of Miles's exile is about to explode over a few
days at the height of wildfire season, when a flame
ignited by human hands begins to smolder and deep in the
forest, someone is contemplating murder. As the growing
inferno races to the town's edge, Miles embarks on a
desperate rescue not only for the life of his five-year-
old daughter—a child, who, until this dangerous summer,
has been a complete stranger—but also for his own
salvation.
