Shortlisted for the Giller Prize (2004).

Few people seek out the tiny Caribbean island of Dampier Cay—visitors usually wash up there by accident. But this weekend, three people are flying to the island, not for a tan or fun in the sun but because they have reason to believe that they might encounter something there that most people take great measures to avoid: a hurricane. Two people from this group have a connection and recall scenes of Galveston's 1900 storm.
