    About this ebook

    You  can only push a mother so far...

    Bo Lowery and her ten-year-old son have hunted the woods surrounding their Alaskan home for as long as Caleb can remember. What they don't eat themselves, they sell to local businesses, using every part of the animal. Disgusted by the wolf cull, pop megastar Rainey Layne and her bodyguard Darius travel to Bo's small town to join a growing group of animal activists.After Bo and Rainey clash during the protest, Rainey pulls mother and son headfirst into her manic, self-absorbed world when she crashes her car on their land. Soon, she finds herself their unwilling guest. But in the age of instant communication, celebrities can't just disappear without the whole world demanding them found.In a violent showdown between hunter and activist, tensions within the Lowery household are dragged into the light. Both women harbor dark secrets. But Rainey Layne will learn just how far a mother pushed to the edge will go to protect her child.

    "WILDFIRE is a gripping small-town crime story that would appeal to fans of movies like THREE BILLBOARDS, WINTER'S BONE, FARGO, and BLACK SNAKE MOAN." - The Black List

    Duncan Ralston

    "Author of the cult smash-hit Woom and Ghostland and more than 15 other books that aren't the cult smash-hit Woom or Ghostland. His debut collection was blurbed positively by the legendary Jack Ketchum. In 10 years of publishing, Duncan Ralston hasn't won or been nominated for sh*t outside of screenwriting awards, and is definitely not bitter about it. For 7 FREE dark fiction short stories/novellas including the prequel to GHOSTLAND, ""The Moving House,"" signed copies of Woom, bookplates and merch, please visit www.duncanralston.com."
