Tom Baxter and his wife, Sarah, have decided to leave England and retire to the peace and tranquillity of a remote, run-down, hill farm on the island of La Palma, in the Canaries. What should have been a relaxed and stress-free retirement rapidly turns into a nightmare of epic proportions when the volcanic ridge underneath their new home begins to erupt, and threatens to trigger a mega-tsunami with the potential to wipe out every city on the Atlantic coast of North America. With the spotlight of global media attention focused on their island home, the couple are soon caught up in a rapidly changing set of deadly events which ultimately transforms their lives, and the lives of many tens of thousands of people in the Canary Islands and beyond.
“‘When The Tide Goes Out’ is a thrilling and tense read and if you love films like ‘2012’ and ‘The Day After Tomorrow’ you will certainly love this book.†– Sarah Hardy, By the Letter Book Reviews
