This is a book about the day that the World Trade Center in New York City was attacked and destroyed. On That Fateful Day, more commonly known as September 11, 2001, or just 9/11, nearly 3000 people were murdered, not just within the World Trade Center complex, but also at the Pentagon in Washington, DC, and in a field in Shanksville, PA. This book will focus upon the drama that took place at the World Trade Center. The story is told without any politics, geopolitical opinion or premeditated rancor.
Within the World Trade Center, the actions and heroes of the first responders are well known. Less is known about the actions and heroics of the ordinary civilian office worker.
In this book, we will follow 24 hours in the fictional lives of three office workers - Roger Phillips, Meena Sukram, and Donna Lee Davis, and their families and co-workers - as they began their day just like any other, making their way to the World Trade Center only to see their lives upended there on That Fateful Day.
Author Torin Reid, a born and bred New Yorker who has spent some time at the WTC, and has lived through the trials and tribulations of Sept. 11, 2001. This is his third book that is rooted within, and is about the life and times of New York City. This is his tribute to the working people within the WTC on that day.
