It’s the middle of the hurricane season. A potentially catastrophic Category 5 storm is raging in the Atlantic Ocean and threatening to make landfall onto Fort Lauderdale beach in the next twenty-four hours. The media has dubbed it “The Storm of the Century.” The entire East Coast of the United States, and particularly the state of Florida, is on edge. Secrets, a luxury beachfront condominium is in the direct path of Hurricane Eloise. The vicious storm is packing winds of over one hundred and fifty miles an hour with torrential rains and the potential of severe flooding. Most of the affluent residents of the building have followed the governor’s orders and evacuated. For a variety of reasons, a small number of occupants have been forced to stay behind in their apartments and ride out the storm there. Lara Kelly, a dedicated home healthcare worker is busy tending to the needs of her favorite elderly patient and attempting to make him safe during the storm. Suddenly things go awry and she finds herself trapped in the building. In this exciting tale, Lara and several others in the building are forced to face their own fears and unite to defend themselves against three murdering, looting thugs who have broken into the condominium building. The next forty-eight hours are harrowing and filled with both heartwarming and dangerous situations. The story is a page turner and you will not be able to put the book down.
