Earl Emerson is the poet laureate of men and women who make their living where the heat is, bringing to life the terror of a burning building and the moments of solitude, solace, and camaraderie that happen in between. Now, Emerson has written a mesmerizing novel of suspense about a man who goes into a fire as a hero and a friend, and comes out as an outcastand a target.VERTICAL BURNTwentyeight paces. John Finney counted his steps as he fought his way for help from inside a Seattle warehouse burning on Leary Way. And when he reached his rescuers, he told them where his partner lay waitingtwentyeight paces away. But they didnt reach Finneys partner until the building had cooled.Now, six months after that tragic day, no one remembers Finney giving the directions that pinpointed his partners position. No one can remember anything about Finney except that he left his friend to die. For Finney, the son of a fire chief, losing his reputation and the trust of his fellow firefighters is a bitter blow. But Finney doesnt believe the fire was an accident. And he doesnt believe the campaign against him is one either.Trying to reconstruct the events at Leary Way, Finney uncovers suspicious actions by men at the scene. With only one person on his sidea female firefighter who is herself an outcast in the departmentFinney begins to piece together an astounding conspiracy that will turn friends into suspects, good men into conspirators, and every man inside the department into a potentially deadly enemy. And the most horrific fire is yet to burn.From the terrifying darkness of a smokeengulfed room to the politics that plays out behind closed doors, Earl Emerson captures with passion and pathos the life and times of the men and women dedicated to the service. In Vertical Burn he fuses his feeling for reallife heroes with a whitehot tale of suspense and betrayal the kind of betrayal that burns bodies, burns a city, and burns a soul forever.
