Very few were prepared for a hike on technically challenging trails – in the dark. As you probably know, Punch Bowl Falls is less than two miles from a parking lot, so many people were just wearing shorts, T-shirts and Tevas. When the Eagle Creek fire happened in 2017, I was riveted by the accounts of the hikers who ended up trapped at Punch Bowl Falls and had to hike out together.

With no cell service, few supplies, and no clear way out of the burning forest, the group of strangers has to become allies to survive. The main character is Natalia, a girl who overcame a traumatic past and now always plays it safe. A small group trapped by the flames must find another way out – or die.
