The network news crew flying out from Los Angeles to cover aforest fire in Idaho believe themselves entitled to danger pay. The blaze has completelydestroyed a rural religious community and all its inhabitants and is stillraging-but that''s not the reason they feel at risk.
The danger comes from their on-screen reporter-beautiful, sexy, andmalignantly ambitious Vicki Garcia. When Vicki turns her wiles on a man who hassomething she wants-whether an extra minute on camera or a helicopter ride tothe off-limits scene of the tragedy-she gets it. Sometimes it provides greatcoverage; but it can also get one or more of her victims incarcerated,incapacitated, or incinerated. Particularly at peril is the crew''s smittenfield producer, Kevin Manwaring, whom Vicki keeps on edge with unspoken-and unfulfilled-promisesof delights to come.
The small Idaho town, formerly occupied by the gentle peoplewho perished in the conflagration, is coveted by a mining company. The storyseems simple enough-until the television technicians discover a severelywounded dog with a bullet in its chest. As the crew investigates the trueorigin of the fire, they become the prey of a clever killer.
