  • Summary

  • In 1946, a crew of convicts moves to an isolated mountain camp to fight wildfires in exchange for their freedom. New recruits join the camp after casualties on the fire lines. Reformist warden Hampton Morris assures skeptical county sheriff L.J. Leach that the camp poses no danger to the residents of the nearby town. Thirty years later, journalist June Rose investigates the camp’s origins - and makes a shocking discovery.
