Fierce weather from Hurricane Ivan stalks Karen and Putt-Putt as they flee their home and swiftly cross the bridge of their barrier island. But a cascading medical crisis begins, interlocking the lives of two teenagers and a woman waiting for a new liver. Will the transplant patient live through the heart-stopping surgical tension in the O.R.? Will Putt-Putt find shelter from the devastating storm and circumvent the horrific events that befall him? "The author does an excellent job at portraying serendipitous human connection ... and I was moved by the tender portrait of a dog trying to find a place he can call home after his owner has been ripped away from him by a sudden moment of tragedy… The book blew me away by showing quiet moments interspersed with the tense drama that comes with saving a life." — San Francisco Book Review. ***** Doctor Barbara's other books are also standalone stories like Outcome.
