The Essex-West-Essex Fire Department has everything a real fire department does: a shiny truck, immaculate uniforms, playful nicknames. In fact, the only thing they don’t have are fires. Fortunately, they’re kept pretty busy with the type of calls you might expect in a rural town. A stuck tractor. A wrong number. And an internal power struggle for Captaincy that is turning up the heat on the tension in their brigade. This is the story of their high-stakes low-flame world.
