From publisher blurb:
A bracing hike through the woods is followed by setting up and relaxing in a campsite outdoors amidst nature. One of the party remarks on the gorgeous sunset…a sunset that supposedly happened an hour before. Another of the party then swears they smell smoke, while another claims the air seems to have gotten warmer. In a moment, they realize what is coming upon them and hurry to strike their campsite and escape just as a line of bright, flickering lights appears on the hills…
A wildfire is a catchall term for any uncontrolled fire occurring in a wilderness area. While the term is most often applied to a forest fire, wildfires also occur in other types of terrain, and are identified accordingly: prairie, brush, bush, desert, grass, hill, peat, vegetation, or veldfire.
