    Summary

    I kept thinking how easy it would be for it all to disappear. I knew better than to trust good things. You got used to them and then they were gone, and you were left standing there wondering how you’d been dumb enough to believe that it was finally your turn to be happy.
     

    When the sidewalk ran out, I probably should’ve turned back.

     

    Instead, I kept walking, hands in my pockets, head down, with an ugly question trailing me, nestled just behind my ribs and right beside my heart.

     

    If I went far enough, would they come find me?

     

    I hated myself for thinking it. But still, I wondered.

    Summary

    Galveston, Texas, 1900

    Ponyboy Curtis and his family live in the island town of Galveston. Life has been rough waters since his parents died in a maritime accident eight months ago. But his brothers are trying. Life's alright with Johnny Cade at his side and the rest of his gang to back him up, especially when "wharf dogs" like them are targeted by the east side "stockings," the rich kids from the Silkstocking District.

    Galveston is built to weather storms. But even then, they'll never see a hurricane in their lives. It just isn't a possible phenomenon. Ponyboy and his family have enough storms to weather in their own lives, all meteorology aside. Galveston is the fastest-growing southern city in the country. There's nowhere to go but up. And Ponyboy has great expectations as a boy who lives in what is soon to be Texas's greatest city.

    Until a hurricane catches the island off-guard, and, separated, the Curtis gang has to fight for their lives to not only save themselves, but get back to each other again. If there's anyone else left alive.
