Built by Fire - Chapter 13: Haiti’s Silent Cry (Audiobook)

When a 7.0 earthquake shattered Haiti, David Burnell deployed as Chief of Security for the Utah Hospital Task Force, charged with protecting over 120 doctors, nurses, and volunteers in a lawless, devastated nation. This chapter takes you into the ashes of Port-au-Prince, where streets reeked of death, gangs ruled the night, and desperation was currency. Yet amid the chaos, another mission emerged: the hunt for a kidnapped three-year-old, Gardy Mardy. From covert nighttime missions in the slums to tense stand-offs with traffickers, David and his team became the thin shield between innocence and evil, facing danger without backup, fighting to bring a stolen child home. Haiti tested every skill, conviction, and ounce of faith, showing that true service is messy, quiet, and costly. You don’t walk away from missions like this unchanged. This is the story of standing in the gap—when the world is burning, and the mission still calls.
