Description

Behind the Flames Lies the Human Story of Courage and Resilience

Foreword by Sean Penn

When a wind-driven inferno swept across Southern California, it pushed first responders and entire communities to their limits. Amid hurricane-force winds, mass evacuations, and nonstop breaking news, millions searched for clarity in the chaos.

In Calm Amidst Chaos, Los Angeles Fire Captain and lead Public Information Officer Erik Scott delivers a gripping, behind-the-scenes account of the January 2025 Palisades Fire -- one of the most complex emergencies the region has ever faced. Blending frontline interviews, on-scene observations, Hollywood's red carpets, and leadership forged under impossible conditions, Scott reveals the human side of disaster: the emotional wreckage left behind, the toll on firefighters, and the quiet courage that carries a city through its darkest hours.

This is a non-political, deeply human memoir about resilience:

? Leading when the stakes are life and death
? Navigating the hidden challenges behind major incidents
? Witnessing communities rise from the ashes
? Finding calm when the world ignites
Equal parts cinematic and grounded, Calm Amidst Chaos is a tribute to courage, a study in leadership under fire, and a testament to what happens when ordinary people face extraordinary conditions -- and how courage can spread faster than flames.

"Captain Erik Scott has a gift for humanizing crises -- his steady communication kept Angelenos informed and reassured when they needed it most. Calm Amidst Chaos is a powerful reflection and moving story of that same grace under pressure."~ Eric Garcetti, Former Mayor of Los Angeles, and U.S. Ambassador to India

"When breaking news unfolds in Los Angeles, Captain Erik Scott is the voice journalists trust. Calm Amidst Chaos takes you behind the cameras to show how leadership and empathy can save lives." ~ Robert Kovacik, Anchor & Reporter, NBC Los Angeles
