In this mountain town, there are animals more dangerous than bears…


Jack Reynolds has torched his share of bridges. When his estranged daughter, Nicole, comes back to town to consult for the clean energy research lab in the old mine, the environmental crusader’s latest attempt at connection crashes and burns. But then Jack finds a dragon-like baby animal in the highway—right after an evacuation order from the lab due to a “containment leak.”


His suspicions aroused, Jack imposes on Nicole to get a tour of the lab. But when events go drastically awry, will Jack and Nicole be able to put their differences aside before their relationship—and the entire town—goes up in smoke?


Up in Smoke is a Jack Reynolds contemporary fantasy novelette. If you like flawed characters up against high stakes in plots with shades of the fantastical, you’ll love this short fast-paced story.
