Wow!
This is the 4th in the Anna Pigeon series, following the exploits of a terrific character's mystery-solving park ranger. And so far, the best by far.
Barr's descriptions of how fires are fought, and the dangers faced by the brave forest fire fighters are incredible. Anna's character development continues apace, as does her relationship with several characters from previous novels.
Having said that, you don't need to read the earlier volumes in the series to enjoy this immensely.
I'm left with a question: how is it possible that this character has not been picked up by Hollywood or HBO?

This Nevada Barr was first published in hardback in 1996 and is apparently just now available in paperback. That may explain how I missed it when I was much into Anna Pigeon. Once again Nevada Barr takes "the classic 'marooned on a desert island with a madman concept' ", added facts about the dangers of fighting fires, and twisted everything into an incredible story.....all the way to the very last page.
This is a thriller to read!
