A novel of breathtaking suspense from an author whose books are "edge-of-your-seat thrilling. Page-turners that don't let up" (Louise Penny, #1 New York Times-bestselling author). When a killer tornado rips through a Dallas flea market, a kind stranger helps Jenna Cooper protect her baby boy. But in the aftermath, Jenna can't find her son or the woman who'd been holding him. Upon discovering the tragedy, reporter and single mom Kate Page, battling for her career and trying to hold her life together, vows to determine what happened to tiny Caleb Cooper. As the FBI launches an investigation amid the devastation, Kate uncovers troubling clues to the trail of the woman last seen with the baby-clues that reveal a plot more sinister than anybody had imagined. Against mounting odds, Kate risks everything in the race to find the truth . . . before it's too late. "Impossible to put down. The exciting plot is edgy and fast-paced with many suspenseful twists leading to an intensely thrilling ending. Mofina is at the top of his game." -Fresh Fiction "Another stellar read that demonstrates Mofina's one of the best thriller writers in the business." -RT Book Reviews (Top Pick)… (altro)

From Amazon:

An anguished mother loses her baby in a deadly storm… A kind stranger helps Jenna Cooper protect her baby boy when a killer tornado rips through a Dallas flea market. But in the aftermath, Jenna can't find her son or the woman who'd been holding him.

A journalist under pressure breaks the story… Upon discovering the tragedy, reporter and single mom Kate Page, battling for her career and trying to hold her life together, vows to determine what happened to tiny Caleb Cooper. As the FBI launches an investigation amid the devastation, Kate uncovers troubling clues to the trail of the woman last seen with the baby—clues that reveal a plot more sinister than anybody had imagined. Against mounting odds, Kate risks everything in the race to find the truth…before it's too late.

My Thoughts:

Well developed characters, a roller coaster of a story line, stories within stories, and a few surprises thrown in along the way. This story that starts out in Texas ends up being an international thriller and that just adds to the tale. I did want to give the "virtual slap" up beside the head to couple of the characters, but overall, a very good book. ( )

Another outstanding book by Rick Mofina. I felt the frustration of Kate with her job and her desperate desire to locate a baby boy who disappeared during a tornado. Kate races the clock, risking her internship job to track down the baby to reunite him with his mom, his dad, and his sister, while bringing the kidnappers to justice. ( )

Not my favorite Mofina book. I did like the main character, Kate. But the story had to many players and the situation seemed just didn't feel realistic. ( )

Whirlwind is a spectacular, adrenaline, thrilling, edge-of-your seat read! I could not stop reading this book. I was right there for every emotional moment with Jenna and Kate as they rushed to find Jenna's baby boy, Caleb.

Mr. Mofina makes all of his characters come alive. This is why he is one of my top favorite authors of all time. Whenever I pick up a new book from him, I know I should block out time and plan on not doing anything else until I have finished reading. This is what happened with this new book. Again because I fell for Jenna and Kate, I was cheering for them. Well especially for Kate. She did not let anyone tell her what to do and she was not afraid. She was a real go-getter. The tornado just added to the story and the intensity. I can not wait to read the next book. ( )
