Category 7

Praise for "Category 7" "Take a healthy dose of the paranoid scenarios from "24" and governmental intrigues from "The West Wing," then spike them liberally with the atmospheric minutiae that armchair meteorologists know and love. Fast-paced storytelling . . . . Satisfying."--"Kirkus Reviews""Kate Sherman, a plucky meteorologist, and Jake Baxter, a CIA weatherman, are the last line of defense between New York City and a Category 7 hurricane, which was created by a top-secret weather-control weapon. A fast-paced action-adventure that promises a rousing finale and delivers it."--"Booklist ""What would happen if a massive super-storm hit New York City? And what if the storm's ferocity were enhanced by human activity? In the authors' apocalyptic scenario, much of New York would be destroyed. Buildings would topple, tunnels would flood, and the death toll would be enormous."--"Library Journal""A hurricane is not only possible in New York City, it's happened before. But because no one alive today has been through that experience, people are not aware of the devastating potential. But Bill Evans knows New York, New York weather, and New York weather history."--Bryan Norcross, CBS News Hurricane Analyst"A well-researched thriller whose building devastation will keep the reader 'churning' through the pages."--" New York Times" bestselling author Steve Alten"""A most creative piece of fiction. Author Bill Evans certainly knows what he is talking about. "Category 7" will have you thinking, the next time you hear the pounding rains and the whipping of the wind. You might be more in awe of nature after reading this book."--"Shelf Life"
