"A storm struck on the night Laura Shane was born, and there was a strangeness about the weather that people would remember for years.
This book has many plot twists and turns, and lots of rich characters that you will remember, from her son Chris to her husband Danny and her best friend Thelma. Even the mysterious stranger is a full and rich character who comes in and out of the traumatic events of Laura's life. But why doesn't he seem to age?
