Along came April 18th…
“Students,” Principal Benson said, “Although I want to first assure you that you will be safe and secure, it appears that we have an emergency on our hands.”
Ami Gibb sits frozen at the news she can’t fathom. Having lost her father in a car accident four months earlier, she cannot believe her unrelenting misfortune. A tanker train has derailed on the East side of Missoula, Montana and two tankers carrying chlorine gas are in danger of puncture. The city is now faced with the bedlam of evacuation.
But the evacuation itself isn’t the real bad news for Ami. The real bad news is that her ten year old sister sits across town, alone and within a mile of the derailment. With their mother on vacation in Toronto, it’s up to Ami to save her sister.
When the Light Goes Out is the story of Ami’s crosstown journey to rescue her sister. What she finds is that the greatest danger doesn’t always lie within the natural disaster; it lies within the chaos of the unknown.
