The town of Pine Creek is located in middle America and would be characterized as a sleepy sort of mundane no-nonsense community that has recently grown to a population of about thirty-five thousand people, give or take a few after College and High School graduations.
The peace and tranquility of this relatively unknown and unassuming community was about to change with the shock wave of an F-4 tornado that scorched the Northwest side of the county and clipped the County Fair grounds. It turned out to be one of a massive wave of tornadoes spawned across the Plains resulting from a Collison of Gulf moisture and a Super cell low pressure front.
No strangers to mysteries and challenges, the team of Jansen and Company must now unravel a new mystery caused by the 'Storm of the Century.' One that once again vaults them into another universe of problem solving.
The situation develops when a strange looking cloud begins to form over the County Fair Grounds, no one notices until the wind suddenly reaches hurricane velocity. What happens next is the rest of the story.
