Written and edited over the span of four months when Andrew Therriault was twenty-three years old, Fire on the Water or The One is a powerful story told in a unique voice that was published three years after the author endured a severe ordeal. After writing several versions of his first book, he is rightfully proud to finish The One before receiving his bachelor's degree. On January 28, 2017, Therriault woke up with retrograde amnesia in the ICU at Massachusetts General Hospital. He survived sudden and serious violence and had been unconscious in a coma for multiple days, losing most of his memory. This proved to be an obstacle and a silver lining as he had to find himself again and recover from near-fatal injuries while awaiting a hearing that would determine his future. Fire on the Water or The One follows the author along his journey throughout the year of 2017, a year that will not be forgotten.
