When an eccentric old woman is found dead in her living room, her head beaten in with a hatchet. Gabriel Du Pre feels compelled to look into the matter. While searching for answers at the scene of the crime, Du Pre spies two teenagers snooping around the house. Meanwhile it's dry season, and fires blazing west of Toussaint have spread to the Wolf Mountains. Du Pre suspects the fires have been intentionally set, and his suspicions are heightened when the same two teenagers are found dead in the mountains, buried beneath ash and riddled with bullet wounds.
