Evan (Buck) Buckley was diagnosed at eighteen with DID. Now being twenty-nine, he is a respected, hard working firefighter at Firehouse 118, and trusted partner to fellow firefighter Eddie Diaz (but really, he's way more than that; and everyone knows it, too).
This is the story of his journey as a man with a heavily stigmatized and misunderstood mental illness, and his fight to prove himself to be just as capable as his colleagues.
However, it takes a certain ex military soldier and his curly-haired son to teach Buck that despite how the world around him wants to ignore and repress the identities who make Evan Buckley who he is, those very identities are nothing to feel shame over; every single one of them will always be Necessary.
