I received this book and read it in one day. Not because it was particularly gripping, but because I gave up reading it about halfway through. Other people here have stated that the author did extensive research in order to write this historical fictional novel, with a Christian angle too. I would have to disagree, because I noticed at least two glaring errors that stuck out like a sore thumb (it would be spoilers for me to list them here). I would have to say this book is for anyone who likes to read Christian fiction, or for perhaps people who have never experienced firsthand a hurricane in real life. This "historical fiction" book is heavy on the fiction and very light-handed with the historical aspects.
