Publisher Description
The Winds of Change saga begins with the dawn of the twentieth century.
2014 RONE AWARD FINALIST. A historical fiction tale of four strangers who come together in the aftermath of the Great Galveston Hurricane of 1900—the deadliest hurricane in US history. More than 6,000 people died that fateful day and the island was left a sea of brokenness. As the four diverse strangers cling to each other amidst the devastation in an attempt to survive, they change each other in ways they never would have imagined. It’s more than a story about a tragic storm, it’s about human spirit triumphing over unimaginable adversity.

Galveston’s tragedy
I had no prior knowledge of the hurricane that just about destroyed Galveston. Our most recent one killed about 100 people…but 6-8000 people disappeared after the Galveston event. What those poor survivors went thru is unimaginable. I was not completely satisfied with ending of the book - it came abruptly and left strings dangling, but now I see there is a second book in this story - so it should help tie up loose ends. It was a very good book - kept my attention throughout wondering how they even survived in the first place.
