Storms are full of energy, and, while threatening, they are actually nature's way of making things better. Floods spread their rivers' silt and create the richest farm land in the world. Lightning storms cleanse forests, making possible new growth, and hurricanes prevent the north from freezing over. Such a storm sweeps through the world's most cherished charity, The Salvation Army. Born amid the warm waters of the Pacific Ocean and raised in Honolulu, Douglas MacArthur Kimuri emerges as the agent of innovation that reshapes this revered Army into changes long overdue. And, like the storms of nature that appear to wreak destruction on long standing structures while making possible new life and growth, he brings a fresh breeze of dramatic change and hope for new life. PACIFIC STORM - The Trilogy begins with Goro, grandfather to the future General.
