Written by dispatcher Denise Stephenson, a crucial "first responder" in the Hurricane Katrina disaster as a member of Mississippis Waveland police department, this volume presents a very real portrait of a calamity that shattered the homes, lives and dreams of many Americans - a compelling episode which the author calls 911 FROM AN INSIDE LINE. Uniquely different from other books on the subject, this work not only captures the harrowing event as it happened, but also reveals an unforgettable documentation of pain, defeat, triumph and redemption as it chronicles not only her own recovery process, but that of a community as well - through the eyes of an actual witness.
