What do you do when you lose more than you can afford, when the stable bridge you've been crossing suddenly gives way and you find yourself plummeting into a chasm of fear and self-doubt?
After losing a dear friend and fellow firefighter to suicide, Steve is left shaken and leaves the fire service forever - or so he thinks. While trying to decide what his future holds, Steve takes us through his past. From Firefighter to Assistant Chief, a winning lottery ticket to a twist of fate, a series of strange health problems and devastating injury, Steve pulls us along the dizzying journey with him. And just when we think it can't possibly get any worse for him, he leads us to the edge. And then the healing begins.
Although a sequel to his first book, The Unbroken, Extinguished is a story of its own, stranger than fiction, and another incredible example of Steve's willingness to lay everything on the line to help anyone suffering from mental illness. At the same time, this isn't a book just for them, or just for first responders. It is powerfully human and will resonate with everyone who reads it.
