THE QUARRY, Book 2 of the Firehouse Family Series, is approximately 155,000 words in length.

It's 1933 and the town of Woodhill, Ohio is faced with the possible closing of Liberty Sand & Gravel, the local quarry that in better times employed almost a hundred men. Mining expert, Aaron Chandler, is hired to evaluate the quarry’s future, and becomes a friend of Boris Hegerty, the quarry foreman. Aaron arrives in Woodhill with his wife and three teenage children, and although his family knows he was previously married, like Aaron, they all believe Aaron's first wife and children died. What Aaron doesn't know is that his son and daughter actually did survive and ended up living in an orphanage. More than twenty years later, the truth emerges when Aaron comes face to face with his son during a riot. His son is Woodhill Fire Department First Aid Officer Eli Sheffler, who has become close friends with Dr. Jessica Malloy, the emergency department physician at Woodhill Memorial Hospital.

Boris is facing not only potential labor problems, so rife in the 1930s, but he must also come to terms with the colon cancer that is killing his mother, Maudie, who is being cared for by Jess. In the course of her work, Jess and Eli's friendship grows closer, and Eli remains her steadfast friend through the course of Maudie’s illness.

When trouble literally explodes at the quarry, seriously injuring Boris, Jess learns how deep her love for Boris truly is, and as she prays for his recovery, she is also thrust into the position of having to emotionally support Eli when Eli and Aaron are suddenly and unexpectedly united with their past.
