The Mullet Shores Emergency Operations Center is bracing for Hurricane Lolita. Ellie Belue has her hands full organizing the wayward staff, dodging their attempts to fix her up with the brand-new Emergency Manager, and chasing after her sister’s beloved pet ferrets. Still, she has everything under control—until one of her colleagues turns up dead. With Lolita unleashing her full fury outside, Ellie and the crew are trapped with a murderer. It’s up to her and Nick Treader, the new Emergency Manager—whose first day on the job is not going as planned—to find out who is targeting their dwindling staff...before the killer strikes again.
