It’s a hot time in the old town tonight when Artemis, the sort-of-crazy scientist dad, and his whiz kids Nick and Curie get wind of a big forest fire in the famous Yellowstone National Park! Dad gets hot under the collar over some missing horses, but Nick and Curie keep their cool as they learn about arson, wildfires, firefighting, and more while trying to find out who started the fire!
