In 2013, one of the worst tornados on record landed a direct hit on the small town of Moore, Oklahoma, destroying a primary school as children cowered inside. Oklahoma native Holly Bailey grew up dreaming of becoming a storm chaser. Instead, she became Newsweek's youngest ever White House correspondent. When Moore was hit, Bailey went back as a journalist and a hometown girl, speaking to those most affected by the tornado. In The Mercy of the Sky is the dramatic, page-turning story about a town that must survive the elements - or die.
