    About this ebook

    A huge mountain fire leaves destruction – and death – in its wake. But are the charred remains of a male body really the result of a natural disaster, or murder?

    The Meredith Mountain fire starts on Labor Day weekend and rages for days – an awesome sight, leaving a trail of havoc and destruction in its wake. Alice Adams edits the Clark’s Fort Guardian newspaper, ably assisted by her nephew, Stuart Campbell, and the two cover the blaze for the paper, vowing the local community with their stunning photographs and features.

    When the fire is finally contained and the mop-up crew discover a burned male body under a fallen log, Alice and Stuart investigate. It seems he died in the fire, but with no ID and nobody knowing anything about the body, they soon face a daunting task – and some disturbing revelations. Can they unravel the truth?

      First off..the tale of the fire in those dry mountain forests which is the novel's opening gambit, is alone worth the price of admission. Lots of misdirection. Kept waiting for the hammer to drop....uh, uh, uh, uh...no spoilers. Gunn has a steady hand that keeps taking you in unexpected directions. And at the end when you sit back to take stock I think you will find that it was written fair and square. More than that actually. The mix includes believable, likeable characters. And those big old mountains and stormy seasons are almost characters themselves.
