A deep rumble in the earth, a screeching noise, and the world begins to shake, throwing people off their feet and hurling buildings to the ground. The New Madrid Fault has ruptured again, wreaking havoc over seven states.
Gale Swanton, city planner for a small Missouri river town, is left in charge when the city manager and mayor are both killed. He struggles to help the townsfolk in the face of broken water mains and impassable roads, with little help from a FEMA overwhelmed by the vast destruction in St. Louis and Memphis.
Tempers fray as food and drinking water run low. Gale and his RN husband struggle to hold together a crumbling community and protect its citizens from their own worst instincts.
And there is more shaking yet to come.
Quake edition by Lou Cadle Literature Fiction eBooks
About a small town in Missouri when the New Madrid fault gives, with earthquakes wreaking havoc throughout the zone.The main characters are Bash and Gayle, a gay couple who work as a city planner and as a nurse. (There's no sex, so don't freak out!) The story of what happens to people in a small town devastated by earthquakes when several states have been devastated is told very realistically. Almost too realistically. Not only the immediate aftermath, but the daily stresses as more earthquakes occur, more deaths, injuries, collapsed buildings, and help doesn't come.
The hospital collapsed during the first big quake, and medical help and supplies are outside in the elements. The same with city government.
Results: a thoughtful and disturbingly realistic story. I'm glad I read it.

Quake edition by Lou Cadle Literature Fiction eBooks Reviews
Enjoyed the story but found it difficult to make it through so many grammatical/typographical errors and even one character mix-up. Probably the worse I have ever encountered in this regard.
haven't read yet. cant wait though.
Unexpected ,life like possibilities
Wonderful story of what can happen, some people come together and some freak out. Government can't do everything for us
A massive earthquake in the Midwest in the New Madrid fault area devastates the region including major metropolitan areas such as St. Louis and Memphis. However, the focus of this novel is a small town in southeastern Missouri where a city planner must lead his community due to the death of the mayor and other high level city officials. His husband is a nurse who becomes a vital link in the temporary medical facility which must be established after the hospital is destroyed. Try to imagine attempting to help the injured and dying with impassable roadways, no electricity, cell service or running water. Definitely a page turner. Much to think about for those who live in earthquake prone regions.
A story about an earthquake that destroys and isolates a small town, and how two characters with public service type jobs get through the aftermath. These two characters (a city planner with expertise in earthquakes, and a nurse) are a married same sex couple, which is a twist I have not seen in the apocalyptic books I've read, not a major deal but adds to the interest and creates a few situations. A good book but it "just ends". You won't be wondering if there is a sequel. This is not necessarily bad, in fact the way it ends is probably pretty realistic.
I love Cadle's writing. he just has that certain way that keeps you wanting just one more page, one more chapter, one more book, etc..This was a first for me to read about two gays pretty much taking over a town destroyed by severe quakes. It didn't bother me in the least. In fact, I felt they had more compassion for jobs they had before them to get some type of survival and rhythm going on amongst all the death. This was very gripping with a lot of situations that left you wondering ...."what would I do??"
