Summary

Sixteen-year-old Jesse Brooks joins his town’s junior fire program hoping to earn respect—and maybe outrun the shadow of his father’s legacy. But when a sudden wind shift sends the fire jumping the line during a supervised training operation, Jesse is separated from his crew and lost in the mountains with nothing but his instincts and what little gear he carried in. As the days stretch and the fire closes in behind him, Jesse must rely on more than survival skills. Out here, the hardest battle isn’t against the fire—it’s staying whole when everything else burns. The Burn Line is a gripping, emotionally honest story of survival, identity, and the fight to find your way home.

This is a very interesting listen, a story of survival against all the odds as a young recruit in a fire fighting crew is separated from his team and has to learn on the hoof so to speak to survive as fire closes in on him. Drama and thrills abound. Daniel Hord nails the narration and brings the whole story to life. Highly recommended. Well worth it's 5 stars.
