Inferno in the Lost Pines

Deputies ran from house to house, shouting to the people. Y'all need to evacuate! One yelled to a child. Where's your mom and dad? The child pointed. The deputy looked that direction and they ran off together, the child and the deputy, suddenly united by the adrenaline of escape. Down the road there were hurried fists on front doors. No polite pauses between knocks-these were desperate pounding crashes on top of each other. Exclamation marks punctuated every spoken word. Hearts lurched as people recognized the biting smell of smoke.
Stunned at the orders to evacuate, residents of Bastrop, Texas, left their homes full of irreplaceable memorabilia and fled to safety. They had little time to gather even the most essential possessions.
Inferno in the Lost Pines is filled with stories of people who had to make fast decisions when chased by a forest fire, and thoughtful decisions when moving into an unexpected future. Would they be able to find any shreds of grace and redemption in their smoldering circumstances?
