Very readable story of what took place in the Kinglake community on Black Saturday through the eyes of local policeman Roger Wood. If you want to know what actually happened on Black Saturday, this book is a good place to start. It was a reminder to me not to be complacent in having a fire plan. I recommend this book to anyone living on Melbourne’s fringes in particular.
