A young woman's secretive midwestern town is engulfed by a
mysterious plague of tornadoes every generation and she must escape
it before it claims her. Stephen King s The Mist meets David Lynch
s Twin Peaks in this surreal, mind-bending horror-thriller. In a
small town tucked away in the midwestern corn fields, the adults
whisper about Tornado Day. Our narrator, a high school sophomore,
has never heard this phrase but she soon discovers its terrible
meaning: a plague of sentient tornadoes is coming to destroy them.
The only thing that stands between the town and total annihilation
is a teen boy known as the tornado killer. Drawn to this enigmatic
boy, our narrator senses an unnatural connection between them. But
the adults are hiding a secret about the origins of the tornadoes
and the true nature of the tornado killer and our narrator must
escape before the primeval power that binds them all comes to claim
her. Audaciously conceived and steeped in existential dread, this
genre-defying fever dream of a novel reveals the mythbound madness
at the heart of American life.
