AWAKENING: A Warning From a Small Town

"Awakening" is a fictional chronicle of two recent calamities in a small California town. * Ben and Barbara Connor believed they had found the perfect summer getaway a few miles from their foggy coastal home. They worked hard to make it a peaceful sanctuary in the mountains. Ben's pet project was a swimming pool to beat summer's heat. Then, heartbreak. In the space of a few months, 'Mother Nature' unleashed one calamity after another. Threats from their backyard forced the Connors to reconsider the viability of a home in the wilderness. The Connors heard it said that nature always reclaimed what man took away. Only when the Connors faced nature's wrath firsthand did they awaken to the seriousness of a planet in crisis.
