About the Book

The Whiteout Effect: Rescue Me! revolves around a chain of events that evolve about a rare Sierra Nevada late-winter blizzard based at the popular iconic town of South Lake Tahoe, California, as well as the personal relationships of a team of first responders’ rescue efforts. The captivating story explores bravery, dedication, and sacrifice as the characters risk their lives during an unpredictable dangerous epic storm. The main premise of The Whiteout Effect is centered on a group of first responders led by first responder ALEX CALLAHAN (a scorned, independent paramedic), and MIKE ARMSTRONG, a strong and sensitive firefighter, who are trying to save lives during a monster blizzard. Alongside their work mission, there is also a budding relationship of Alex and Mike (who escape work stressors to go on a short adventure-seeking snowmobile trip in the backcountry), playing down the hype of the storm, adding a layer of emotional depth to the story. Throughout the adventure-romance, readers are taken on an exciting roller-coaster ride as the characters navigate unexpected life-threatening whiteout conditions and face deadly challenges in their own fate. If you liked The Day After Tomorrow, you’ll love this heart-pounding cautionary tale of the power and destruction of nature while highlighting the vulnerability, passion, and skill set of those who save lives.
