About the Author

The Oklahoma Project is an incredible story of endurance, engineering, and overcoming adversity. Against the backdrop of unpredictable Oklahoma weather, this novel follows a team of refrigeration engineers at a plant called Stampede Meats, where industrial refrigeration and ammonia control are essential for daily operations. But when a deadly tornado hits, everything changes in an instant.

They run to the storm shelter as the storm ravages the facility. But the destruction of the plant sets off a hazmat emergency, venting toxic ammonia from the refrigeration system—seemingly taking the life out of the storm before Luke’s very eyes. With disaster striking, the team must turn to their emergency procedures to limit the damage before it gets out of control.

Meanwhile, in a nearby town where a highly anticipated championship game is underway, local baseball players and their families have no clue about the impending threat. As the storm’s damage worsens, an insurance adjuster arrives to assess the destruction—only to realize the true nature of the catastrophe.

The tornado leaves destruction in its wake, but it also brings another twist: a community-sponsored walkathon to raise funds for a church member who can’t afford her cancer surgery. With lives on the line and the town descending into chaos, engineers, first responders, and everyday heroes must navigate the aftermath and begin rebuilding in the wake of the storm.

The Oklahoma Project is a gripping tale of courage, technical prowess, and human determination. A nail-biter of the best kind, it dives into severe weather, engineering challenges, and split-second decisions under pressure. Ideal for fans of disaster fiction, industrial drama, and survival thrillers, it’s a story that sticks with readers—reminding them how preparation, teamwork, and willpower can make all the difference when nature strikes.
