"When Percy Turner begins a seventh summer of work in a fire tower deep in the Canadian woods, she is hanging on to her emotional stability by a thread. Completely isolated from the outside world and ensconced in the cocoon of her tower, she spends her days scanning the horizon for "smokes" - ranger-speak for forest fires. But the fires of her troubled past, which burn within her, are far more difficult for her to spot.".
"Set in a harsh wilderness landscape, singed with bold eroticism and unflinching honesty, Burning Ground is a moving coming-of-age story and a courageous exploration of desire and emotional risk. An impressive debut, it introduces an exciting new voice in contemporary fiction."--BOOK JACKET.
