The Firefighter Owners' Workshop Manual aims to provide an overview of what it takes to become a fire fighter, and how a fire fighter works as part of an effective team to tackle various emergencies using specialist equipment, including, of course, fire appliances. This book covers the training, roles and working lives of both retained and full-time firefighters in the UK. It also takes a look at the equipment used, from protective clothing to fire fighting appliances and rescue equipment.
I grew up in the creative cauldron of nineties Manchester when Madchester rocked the charts and the Hacienda ruled clubland. The city has shaped me as a writer. I write thrillers and crime based on the fine folk of Manchester and Salford. The Little Girl Lost trilogy has however developed into an international thriller taking in Manchester, Morocco, London, Barcelona, Monza, Zurich, Moscow, Chechnya, Batumi and... Milton Keynes.
