As December dawns in 1941, Phineas O'Shea is pretty sure that he's going to live forever.

Phin has no idea that his eternal youth is just about to expire. Buy Paperback Buy eBook

Hale's Storm

"Penelope Hale is hungry. Rib baring, 
aching belly starving . Abruptly dropped 
from the cushy heights of extreme wealth into 
the gaping jaws of the Great Depression
her family claws for any meager scrap 
of food they can get. 
She is determined to break out 
of the pattern society has set for her 
and create her own foundation. 
 Alone.  As Pip fights her way 
through a raging storm, 
she finds that food and water 
can only satisfy the belly. 
When she learns that her sufferingcould be 
the result of foul play, 
a more ravenous hunger takes over. 
She needs sustenance of a different sort, 
and she's simply starving for it."
