Summary:

"A 38-year-old American interior designer based in London and her independent-minded 74-year-old architect mother; a British investment banker in New York to see his ex-wife and young children; a resident ER doctor who experienced Hurricane Sandy when she was a medical student; two young men, 21-year-old NYU students; their friends; and others are thrust together when a major hurricane descends upon New York City and wreaks unimaginable chaos and devastation. Yet through the darkness, these characters form unlikely new friendships and together, manage to find hope and revitalization"-- Provided by publisher.

Hurricane Ophelia is bearing down on New York City. And in a matter of hours six people, along with their families and friends, will be caught up in the horrific flooding it unleashes. Ellen Wharton flew in from London to see her architect mother, but Grace Madison refuses to leave her apartment in the evacuation zone. British investment banker Charles Williams is looking for his daughters and ex-wife in SoHo. ER doctor Juliette Dubois fights to save lives when the generators at her hospital fail. NYU students Peter Holbrook and Ben Weiss are settled in with junk food and beer until their building threatens to collapse. And then the real challenges begin as the survivors face their futures.
