I am taking this out of the Mystery/Thriller Bookbox hosted by lane1088.
A mammoth twister tears through the sleepy town of Promise, Oklahoma, and leaves behind three mutilated bodies in a ravaged farmhouse. Police Chief Charlie Grover believes the victims were impaled by flying debris...until gruesome evidence comes to light, proving that they were brutally murdered. How could the killer predict exactly when and where a tornado would strike and use it to cover his tracks? With the aid of a tornado-chasing scientist, Charlie delves into a high-tech, high-risk search for a cunning criminal-one who may be stalking Charlie and his own daughter. For this is a predator unlike any other: one who conspires with the ferocious power of nature to commit and conceal unspeakable crimes.
Very suspenseful. Hard to put down.

I borrowed this one from the princess-peapod's Spring ABC Bookbox and put it back in for someone else to find!
My Review: This was a really great thriller! I have never heard of this book or author before, so I wanted to try it. I liked the characters and had NO clue who the murderer was until the last bit.
I have actually been to Oklahoma once in 1999 when a tornado hit Oklahoma City and several other locations. We went to a family reunion and my husband was driving our rental car and he kept looking in the rear view mirror so I did and saw a funnel cloud behind us. The next day we found out it had touched down and there was quite a bit of damage. We weren't affected at all.

"A book is a mysterious object, I said, and once it floats out into the world, anything can happen. All kinds of mischief can be caused, and there's not a damned thing you can do about it. For better or worse, it's completely out of your control."
