Infos

Fifteen years ago, the Evelyn Fire stole more than just the Hayes family home; it took their mother and shrouded their lives in a web of unanswered questions. Now, as the Diablo's Breath wildfire tears through the tinder-dry California foothills, mirroring the tragedy of their past, the Hayes siblings are drawn back to the charred remnants of their childhood.  Sarah, the steely environmental lawyer, fights the inferno with the same fierce determination she wields in the courtroom. Daniel, the haunted photographer, finds a morbid solace in the beauty of destruction, his lens a shield against the pain. And Emily, the enigmatic youngest sister, feels the fire's pulse in her very being, attuned to the whispers of the land and the secrets it holds.
Their return ignites a quest for truth, unearthing a hidden journal that hints at a conspiracy surrounding their mother's death.  Cryptic entries point to powerful figures who profit from the very disasters they claim to prevent.  As Sarah delves deeper, she uncovers a network of illicit deals and environmental cover-ups, attracting the attention of those who will stop at nothing to silence her. Daniel, his camera capturing a clandestine meeting, is unwillingly pulled into the unfolding mystery. His photographs, once an escape, become weapons of truth. Emily, guided by ancient indigenous prophecies and the wisdom of her Miwok ancestors, deciphers the fire's cryptic messages, seeking a forgotten ritual that could appease the raging flames and restore balance to the scorched earth.
The Diablo's Breath intensifies, reflecting the escalating tension within the family. Sarah's pursuit of justice clashes with Daniel's desperate attempts to protect their fragile peace, while Emily walks a solitary path, caught between their warring ideologies.  As the fire rages, they must confront not only the external threat but the internal demons that have haunted them for years.  Will they succumb to the ashes of the past, or can they find solace and strength in the whispers of the future, forging a new legacy from the embers of loss?
