Fans of no holds-barred stories such as Motley Crue's The Dirt, memoirs by celebrity chefs, and brutally honest personal memoirs will love this raw and inspiring true story. "Chef Curtis Duffy's Fireproof is like Anthony Bourdain's Kitchen Confidential meets Sons of Anarchy." --Peter Blauner, New York Times bestselling author of The Intruder Fireproof charts Chef Curtis Duffy's rise in spite of trauma, to being mentored by and recognized among the world's top chefs. Amid childhood chaos in rural Ohio, a young Duffy first found refuge in Home Ec class, then at one of Columbus's best restaurants, where he honed his skills. His passion ignited, Duffy was dead set on leaving Ohio and breaking the Duffy family curse. But the tragic deaths of his parents jeopardized his promising trajectories.
