About This Book
Heroic firefighter Robert J. Doyle is back, still struggling with his inner demons, the result of an incident in wartorn Lebanon, when he ordered the destruction of a complete village. As he walked through the carnage, Doyle vowed one day to pay for the loss of innocent lives.
Doyle, believes with each life he helps save; he makes a payment on his debt. While Doyle responds to his community’s calls for help, he ignores his own needs. To counteract flashbacks brought on by burnout, Doyle uses alcohol to keep going.
A Vanishing Breed centers on Doyle’s continuing struggle to find inner peace, and his on-again off-again relationships, but also examines the question of what compels all volunteers to respond. Doyle’s inner demons provoke him to action, but the men with whom he serves make no less a sacrifice. They answer every call, day or night, sacrifice time, and risk their lives in service to their communities.
