The Hurricane Keeper

When a drop of hope exists, all it takes is courage to achieve the impossible. My dad went missing in Hurricane Goliath ten years ago. They say no one ever comes back from the storm that parked itself over Florida fifty years ago and has been hanging around ever since. Chip Sinclair, the director of the United States Hurricane Agency, called off the search after only three months. Now Chip is dating my mom. I should be focusing on life after graduation in just a few weeks. My unofficial boyfriend Mason, and my best friend Dasha are. But how can I sit by and let everyone move on with their lives when Dad may still be out there? The Storm Chasers might have the information I need. Everyone around me thinks that Dad is dead, but I know he's still alive. And I'll do whatever it takes to prove it. This speculative YA environmental thriller is a clean coming-of-age story set in the near future with a strong female lead. It features a girl with strong sibling relationships who must navigate heartbreak, choices, and family dynamics as she goes on adventure to unravel the mystery and government conspiracy surrounding a natural disaster.
