Heatwave: 72 Hours at 110 Degrees (Book Ten of the Survive the Wild series)
Book Ten of the Survive the Wild series. The thermometer reads 110 degrees, the highway is empty, and long-haul trucker Tom Beckett's rig just died on a remote stretch of Arizona desert. No cell signal. The next town is thirty miles of scorching sand away, and the rescue he radios for can't reach him for 72 hours. All he has is a tarp, four gallons of water, his wits -- and Biscuit, his loyal Lab, counting on him. As the cab turns into a 170-degree oven, Tom must outthink the desert's deadliest killer: the heat itself. Every hour is a battle -- rigging shade from a tarp, rationing sweat instead of water, cooling his pulse points with wet cloths, signaling for rescue with mirror flashes and headlight SOS, and fighting off the creeping warning signs of heat exhaustion before they turn deadly. Heatwave: 72 Hours at 110 Degrees is a heart-pounding action survival thriller with real, practical extreme-heat survival techniques woven into every chapter -- plus a full real-world skills breakdown and an Extreme Heat Survival Checklist you can build today. When the temperature spikes and the AC dies, this is the knowledge that keeps you alive.
