The emergency preparedness of a coastal Waffle House is put to the test when a hurricane brings strong rains, merciless bandits, and something much, much worse.
SYNOPSIS
For Carrie, it was just another shift at Waffle House when word of the hurricane changing direction came down from the corporate Storm Center. Still, nothing they weren’t prepared to handle. That is until the bandits came in and took everyone hostage. And then the storm hit.
Now Carrie has to outwit the captors and keep the storm from destroying the store. And of course there’s the large tentacled monster that’s banging on the windows. But the Waffle House never closes, and Carrie aims to maintain that standard.
