Don't Look Back

The 343 FDNY Firefighters Killed on 9-11 and the Fight for the Trut

De: Joe Calderone

Narrado por: Adam Grupper

The mother of a FDNY firefighter killed on 9/11 teams up with a crusading journalist to fight City Hall and uncover the truth about why more than 300 firefighters perished during the World Trade Center attack.  

Don’t Look Back is a thriller that takes listeners into the hearts and minds of an FDNY family who lost their son during 9/11 and set out on a mission to find out what really happened to him and the other 342 firefighters who perished needlessly. Sarah Murphy, a savvy community organizer from the Bronx, teams up with a local investigative reporter and other 9/11 families as they take on City Hall to unearth the failures at the FDNY. 

In this fast-paced novel by former Daily News investigative reporter Joe Calderone, the families risk everything to expose a corruption scandal that put faulty radios in the hands of the FDNY, leading to the worst loss of life in the history of the department. This compelling story, based on true events, takes a different perspective on a worldwide event and gives voice to the 343 members of the FDNY who perished, largely unaware that the buildings were about to come down upon them.

No need to fictionalize 9/11, except for profit

If this telling is “based on true events” the author should have been courageous enough to write a non-fiction book. Otherwise, this book is “entertainment” at the expense of 9/11 families and for the benefit of the author’s bank account. It disgusts me that I found out this was fiction after purchasing the book.
