The professional daredevil

There’s brave and then there’s foolish. Then there’s a combination of two, which we call daredevils. But some people shouldn’t be so willing to take risks, especially when there’s not a crowd below you to cheer you on.

But this guy right here, he’s putting his life on the line for what appears to be basic building maintenance tasks. If you do this, there are two likely consequences. First, you get a raise for going beyond your line of duty. Second, you’re out of a job for needlessly putting the company at risk of litigation. And to go up there without a ladder spotter, that takes some cojones.

Kimberly Atwood’s books have received starred reviews in Publishers Weekly, Library Journal, and Booklist. Kimberly lives in the Rocky Mountains with her husband, an exceptionally perfect dog, and an attack cat. Before she started writing historical research, Kimberly got a graduate degree in theoretical physical chemistry from Ohio State University. After that, just to shake things up, she went to law school at the University of London and graduated summa cum laude. Then she did a handful of clerkships with some really important people who are way too dignified to be named here. She was a law professor for a while. She now writes full-time.
