Local Yokels - Paul J. Krause

. .

Résumé :
The close brotherhood of the fire service is shown when Bootknife and the Local Yokels of Uville face the most challenging week of their lives. A weeklong stretch of structure fires has turned this into the busiest consecutive fire period in the department's history. Bootknife and his fellow firefighters will use all of their skills to battle these blazes, saving lives and protecting their neighbors' properties. Although rushing into danger becomes second nature to these brothers in battle, a partial collapse within one house fire will leave three of them struggling to survive.
