This is a must read historical fiction packed with dark suspense,
romance and tragedy. After arriving in Galveston, Texas, from
England, at the turn of the century, a young courageous fifteen
year-old girl old, Catherine Eastman must face a new life in an
orphanage after her mother is murdered by a drifter shortly after
they arrive. The drifter, David Brooks, has his own dark past and a
passion for prostitutes and beautiful women and often leaves them
dead. A young man, ten years older than Catherine, gets permission
to marry her and take her from the orphanage on her sixteenth
birthday. Love and passion ignite as the two fall in love. Brooks'
next conquest is Catherine, and after he abducts and violates her,
he is caught and sent to a prison farm. All of this is happening
while the city of Galveston is blithely unaware of the devastation
that waits in the near future. By 1900, a monstrous hurricane is
brewing in the gulf that will kill thousands and threaten to wipe
the city off the map forever.
