I worked tirelessly on this book over the span of four months in order to finish the week before graduating from university. Two previous versions of Fire on the Water, which are both out-of-print, formed the basis for the storyline in Fire on the Water or The One. Unlike the two previous versions, this book was almost entirely rewritten and occasionally restructured for a finer read. Fire on the Water or The One is a true story. It can get rough out there at times and it's fair to say that what happened was something only a miracle could let me escape.
