Still reeling from the fallout of her divorceâtheir move to Houston, her familyâs disapproval, the struggle to make ends meet on her ownânow Jia is worried about Ishaanâs future, too. Will her solo parenting be enough? Doesnât a boy need a father?And now their apartment complex is under a mandatory evacuation order. Jiaâs sister, Seema, has invited them to hunker down in her fancy house in Sugar Land, and despite Jiaâs misgivingsâSeemaâs husband, Vipul, has been just a little too friendly with her latelyâJia concedes itâs probably the best place to keep Ishaan safe during the hurricane. With Jiaâs philandering ex scrutinizing her every move, all too eager to snatch back custody of Ishaan, she canât afford to make a mistake.When Vipulâs brother and his wife show up on Seemaâs doorstep, too, itâs a recipe for disaster. Grandma, the family matriarch, has never been shy about playing favorites among her sons and their wives. As the storm escalates, tensions rise quickly, and soon someoneâs dead. Was it a horrible accident or is there a murderer in their midst?With no help available until the floodwaters recede in the morning, Jia must protect her son and identify the culprit before she goes down for a crime she didnât commitâor becomes the next victim. . . .
