The Darling Dahlias And The Eleven O'Clock Lady (2015) - Plot & Excerpts
After she and Sarah got home and carried their purchases into the house, the first thing she did was turn on the parlor radio to try and catch a weather forecast. Ten minutes later, the announcer on WALA was reporting that the storm that had been hanging around out in the Gulf had finally crossed the coast and was picking up speed. It was moving inland west of Mobile on a curving path that took it in a northerly direction. The announcer warned of torrential rain, lightning, and winds of over a hundred miles an hour, higher in gusts. Ophelia, who had weathered a great many storms, didn’t need to look at a map to know that Darling was on the edges of the path and that they were about to be brushed by a hurricane. She telephoned Jed to alert him to the situation, then summoned Sam and put him to the task of telephoning the boys on his baseball team to tell them that their picnic was postponed, since the whole town would be hunkering down until the storm had blown over.
