"Enthralling... vivid and humane" OBSERVER Lucy is a world-leading
authority on recovering from disaster. She holds governments to
account, supports survivors and helps communities to rebuild. She
has been at the centre of the most seismic events of the last few
decades, advising on everything from the 2004 tsunami and the 7/7
bombings to the Grenfell fire and the war in Ukraine. Lucy's job is
to pick up the pieces and get us ready for what comes next. Lucy
takes us behind the police tape to scenes of chaos, and into
government briefing rooms where confusion can reign. She also looks
back at the many losses and loves of her life and career, and tells
us how we can all build back after disaster. When the Dust Settles
lifts us up, showing that humanity, hope and humour can - and must
- be found on the darkest days.
