A revealing ride-along with New England’s teenage volunteer EMTs - boys and girls pulled away from their homework to save lives when the sun goes down.
It’s a Darien, Connecticut, tradition: an emergency medical service managed by adolescents. One kid is a varsity soccer captain. There’s a future doctor, a band dork, a theater geek. Theirs is a view of town without the niceties. A drunken spouse turned violent. Lonely old people stuck in the bath. A midlife suicide. How do these kids process the sometimes shocking and violent life-and-death secrets of their community? The answer is a story of high stress and uncommon high school lives, told by a writer who spent his own youth on the night shift. Welcome to Post 53.
Rosecrans Baldwin’s Nightcrawlers is part of Exposure, a collection of six incredible and true stories of American double lives from millionaire CEOs and suburban teens to undercover investigators and scam artists - all for whom secrets are a way of life. Each piece can be listened to in a single astonished sitting.

Solid story

It didn’t change our schooling. If anything, it likely helped us be better students and helped focus us more. We all were incredibly bored, in the honors (GATE) classes, graduated early, rarely ever needed to study for a test, and did homework at lunch. It also helped each of us choose our future careers. There were many, many positive aspects of this part of our lives.
The one major drawback is we didn't have friends our age to just be normal with. To relax, go on a date, dance, learn to socialize, etc. Making matters worse our school was split. Girls went to one school and boys went to another across town. Add to this, like the book, this was predominantly a town of mostly white people. When I started asking questions I was shut down.
I don't regret what we did or the experience but I do feel we missed out on important life lessons.
This is a very thought provoking book. I enjoyed it & recommend it. 👍
