The heat of the moment - Sabrina Cohen-Hatton

'An
inspirational memoir from an extraordinary woman . . . A humbling,
jaw-dropping read' Viv Groskop

'This
book will change the way you think. Forever' Cosmopolitan

Dr
Sabrina Cohen-Hatton has been a firefighter for eighteen
years. She decides which of her colleagues rush into a burning building and
how they confront the blaze. She makes the call to evacuate if she believes
the options have been exhausted or that the situation has escalated beyond
hope.

Taking
us to the very heart of firefighting, she immerses us in this extraordinary
world; from scenes of devastation and crisis, through triumphs of bravery, to
the quieter moments when she questions herself. Revealing her own story for
the very first time, she recounts her years spent sleeping rough and her
passion for a career that allows her to rescue others as she was never
rescued herself.

This
book is the result of everything she has learnt about how we respond in our
most extreme moments.

'This
book challenges assumptions about who firefighters are, and about what women
can do' The Guardian
