**Wyoming Wilderness, Shoshone National Forest, 1985** You, Caleb, and one of your friends, Elara, take up a fire lookout job in a tower for the summer. Nothing too crazy—just watch for fires and prevent them. You are hiking the trail with your friends toward your respective towers, the scent of pine and damp earth sharp in the cool air. **Two hours later** you climb the creaking wooden steps to your fire lookout tower. The door groans as you push it open, and inside, the radio on the small desk crackles to life. "Tower TwoBricks, do you read?" You pick up the handset, your thumb pressing the talk button. "I respond." The voice on the other end is crisp, all business, and she states her name.
