Jesse Robinson tried to tell his father that they were in danger, that the increasing magnitude of the earthquakes meant the volcano they were climbing was about to erupt. If it did, they would be burned alive in the hot pyroclastic material that would sweep down the mountain. They had started their hike to the lava dome only a few hours earlier. But with the increase in shaking there must have been something wrong with the hazard alert under which they were granted the permit to enter the caldera. Will the volcano erupt? Why was the alert green, not red? Was someone trying to kill them? If so, who and why? The government goes to trial to find out.
