Inspired by the true stories of over thirty women firefighters, this first-of-its-kind novel brings female firefighter stories blazing onto bookshelves.
"The most realistic book of female firefighters I have ever read!" ―Lisa Sedillo, firefighter and paramedic for West Manatee Fire Rescue
It's dangerous to be an extraordinary woman.
Four women—Ruby, Dana, Brazil, and Jessie—choose the extraordinary when they join the Minneapolis Fire Department. Prepared to fight literal fires, none of them anticipate the threats lurking in the dark corners of the firehouse.
How do you protect yourself from someone labeled as a hero?
Is it better to secure your own place in a flawed system, or fight for something better?
Told by a veteran Minneapolis firefighter and captain, The Fire She Fights, brings bold representation to the realities of working in a male dominated field.
In this compelling addition to women's fiction, the lives and friendships of female firefighters are illuminated, as they support one another in a culture meant to keep them out.
"I cried, I laughed, I cheered. This book shines a light on the strength and courage of hardworking women who pave the way for social change and gender equality." ―Carlyn Gilmore, occupational therapist
"The tragedy is that the people who would benefit most from reading Moore's book, white male firefighters and officers, will never read a single word... If they do, I believe they're going to be "shocked" to see they're one of two characters in Moore's book. They're either the person whose behaviors are inappropriate or the person who's looking the other way." -Robert Avsec, Battalion Chief (ret.) Chesterfield VA Fire and EMS Department
