Most people go to the Black Rock Desert to party under neon skies.
Nathan Morley went there to dig up a murder.
Long before Burning Man, this same stretch of Nevada wasteland was home to something darker - a drifter named Ronald John Gress, known only by his nickname: Bristlewolf.
He built a life in the middle of nowhere
a hole in the ground, a shovel, and silence.
And when the peace broke, three people ended up dead.

Bristlewolf isn’t fiction.
It’s a true story about pride, madness, and the way the desert remembers what men try to bury.
