This story is based on the true story of one of America's biggest wildfires. Written beautifully. The story was engrossing and i very much enjoyed it. It is marked young adult--i do not understand why as it is very much for adults also. This wasn't an easy book to envision as hundreds of forest fires blazed thru Idaho and Montana, they were worse than anyone imagined. I found this an excellent read.
