Synopsis

The most horrifying threat is one that catches you when you least expect it. Jean Carmelo had arrived in Port-au-Prince on that fateful Monday, blissfully unaware of the looming catastrophe. Excited to be back in Haiti's pulsing capital, the young man could never have imagined that in just 24 hours his world would lie in ruins.

When the magnitude 7.0 earthquake struck, it delivered the most shocking tragedy Haiti had ever witnessed. Carmelo and millions of others were caught utterly defenseless as homes, businesses and lives crumbled in the blink of an eye. The very earth beneath their feet turned against them, shaking foundations to dust in mere seconds. By the time the ground stilled, over a quarter of a million souls had perished beneath the rubble.

Now in its powerful second edition, Quake is more than just a recounting of events; it's a profound journey of resilience. Author Will Loiseau, a survivor himself, takes you to the heart of this true story, offering deeper insights from the nightmarish epicenter before and after one of the most devastating natural disasters in modern history. Loiseau chronicles the agonizing struggle for survival in the quake's aftermath, highlighting the horrifying chaos, selfless bravery, and the unwavering strength of the Haitian spirit amidst almost unimaginable loss and destruction. This extraordinary story of tragedy and hope vividly portrays both the immense human toll and the indomitable power of the human spirit to endure.
