Buzz Bernard knows weather, but
better still Buzz Bernard knows how to wrap a twister of a story inside a
real-live twister of a tornado. Protagonist Chuck's life is broken, and he's
accepted his beer-for-breakfast as the highlight of his day when out of nowhere
comes a million-dollar offer that just might repair a lot of that brokenness.
There are conditions, of course, and the odds are against Chuck finding what
this Hollywood hotshot wants him to find in an impossible time frame. But
throwing caution and his steady job as a janitor to the, ahem, wind, Chuck
decides to chase the pot of gold at the end of the tornado-to-end-all-tornadoes.
There's a chance this might help him fix the sadness of a seemingly
impossible-to-resolve conflict with his son. And, of course, along the way, a
potential love interest jumps into the fray, a female agent chasing bad guys
who chase storms. Add in the point man from Hollywood who holds the key to the
golden money just happens to be in line for Jerk of the Year, and you have a
cast of characters that Bernard, ahem, spins into conflicts, messes,
disappointments and, ultimately not what the reader expects at the end. Bernard
is a master of suspense (read "Plague" if you haven't already), and
he uses knowledge gained in the weather industry to take us a lot more
up-close-and-personal with Mother Nature than most authors can do. The result
is that "Supercell" is a page turner, Grade EF-5. What's EF-5, you
say? It's covered in "Supercell."
