This is the story  of the author, Michael Hingson, and his guide dog, Roselle, who were in Tower 1 of the the World Trade Center on September 11, 2001.  With the help of his coworker and his guide dog, Michael was able to safely escape from the burning tower and leave the area before tower 2 collapsed.  Since Michael is blind, he describes the events in smells, feelings, and uses his other senses to escape the tower. 

The story is also about Michael's life; growing up blind, and learning to navigate the many obstacles that the blind are faced with.  He had some amazing people and dogs to aid him as he made his way through high school, college and into the business world.  This is a very interesting and inspiring story.
