Each is deeply devoted to what they do, but they are all beginning to crack under the immense pressures of their work. "The most impressive trick of this book - and it is a very good one - is the way Mitchell pulls off a literary thriller that is as suspenseful as it is introspective." ( The Globe and Mail) When you spend your life saving others.who will be there to save you? When tragedy erupts on a stifling summer night, three ordinary people, with the extraordinary jobs of rescuing strangers, are connected to one another in ways both explicit and invisible.
