More than that, Rianna and Bobby are a couple. They’re the two best forecasters of Cloud behavior, prized and protected by their supervisor, LeBrand, because of their complementary talents.
So why are their bosses trying to kill them?
What’s the real agenda—and just how bad is that last Cloud formation going to be?
Can Rianna, Bobby, and LeBrand manage to stay alive long enough to find out what’s going on?
