Cooke brings to life the intense training that forged lifelong friendships, the heart-pounding response to emergency calls in the dead of night, and the raw reality of tackling everything from towering mill infernos to devastating road accidents. We witness both the camaraderie that helps crews cope with trauma and the toll that witnessing human tragedy can take.This memoir captures the day-to-day life of a firefighter and, most importantly, the deep bond between those who run towards danger when others run away.It's a reminder that behind every emergency call is a human story waiting to be told.
