Action/Adventure/Thriller

Date Published: 02-06-2024

Publisher: Sunbury Press, Inc.


 

REAP THE WIND is THE PERFECT STORM meets THE FIRM.

 

The novel  is an action/adventure thriller in which three lawyers flee Houston heading to Cincinnati in a rented Lincoln Town Car. They must drive across Texas and the Midwest in the midst of the worst climate change-induced hurricane of the century so Josh Goldberg can be with his girlfriend who is giving birth to their baby. They have to survive a hurricane, tornado, hailstorm, driving rain, and each other to get there.

Josh’s travel companions are his best friend—an alcoholic, drug-addicted lawyer—and his boss who connives to derail his plans so she can get to Philadelphia for a business meeting with a Norwegian billionaire. The odyssey is dangerous on many levels and may be a suicide trip.




Review
I like how the characters grew into a great team. Like the personality growth. The adventure is very descriptive and interesting.
This was an absolutely amazing story, holding you on the edge of your seat from start to finish. You didn't know how they were going to get out of all the situations they were in. It is definitely a great roller coaster ride. 
Treat yourself to a great piece of story telling.
