This was my first book by this author. I can see why so many enjoy his books. It was a great thriller, just like the Irwin Allen disaster movies I used to see growing up. This thriller is based on fact and did actually happen. California had a somewhat similar heavy rain period earlier this year. The author keeps the action fast and furious while throwing curves along the way. He doesn’t shy away from the human element either. I loved seeing the evil folks get their just deserts. I’m looking forward to the next two books, Fractured and Mammoth. Narration took a bit to get used to as the narrator’s voice is rather gravelly.
