The bestselling masters of the Great American Western pit heroes and villains, men and women, survivors and the unlucky, against the shocking power of Mother Nature in this epic standalone adventure set on the Texas frontier. A stranger on a mission of revenge. A hurricane on a path of destruction. THE STORM OF THE CENTURY HITS TEXAS-WITH A VENGEANCE. At the height of the Civil War, a Confederate soldier was captured and held in New York's infamous Elmira prison camp. He managed to escape during a snowstorm-after killing a sadistic guard-and made his way to Texas. There, he started a new life in the small lumber town of Pine Lick where he served as sheriff until he retired. Today, his son wears the badge; his nightmares of the war are long forgotten. But tonight, his past will return with a vengeance . . . When nature unleashes its fury. Sheriff Mack Armstrong is as fine a lawman as his father, dedicated to protecting the townspeople of Pine Lick-especially when trouble shows up. But when he hears that a mysterious newcomer is armed, angry, and looking to kill a man named Armstrong, he barely has a chance to react. Another force of nature arrives-even deadlier than the stranger. It's a once-in-a-lifetime hurricane, the worst he's ever seen. The windstorm tears apart the sawmill, the church, the homes. The torrential rains destroy the dam then flood the streets. And all Sheriff Armstrong can do is save as many people as he can-before the stranger gets revenge. . . .
