"Cape Safety, Inc. - Cast of Characters continues the travels and travails of the men and women of a fictitious top-notch safety consulting firm, internationally recognized as the ""go-to"" safety, industrial hygiene, and disaster specialists. Look over their shoulders as they describe the Great Molasses Flood of 1919 in Boston, as a giant tank full of molasses exploded, covering the city. Learn how a team of hazmat specialists disposed of 70,000 lbs. of rotted food in the U.S.S. Cole, how to avoid getting hit by lightning, just how badly Hollywood's stunt performers--including Jackie Chan--get hurt in every part of their bodies and why no one is doing anything about it. Read a fascinating, true tale of how a 1300-acre lake in Louisiana literally ""went down the drain"" in one of the most bizarre stories ever told.

The diverse collection of personable experts at Cape Safety, Inc. remain the busiest safety guys and gals around, but don't think for a minute it's all work and no play. Cape Safety Inc. - Cast of Characters, the 2nd in his Danger Dogs Series, continues Mr. Hughes's unique genre of ""actual fiction"" combining the elements of true news events with fictional characters, set on picturesque Cape Cod."
