A rookie 911 operator writes with humor, empathy, and amazing candor of the demanding job that changed her forever. City Pages "Burau's account nicely draws the reader into the world of a do-gooder stretched to the limits of her ability to help at all....We see a perceptive mind trying to make sense of both internal and external chaos."
