*Lightning Crimes is a short story (22 pages) set between Seismic Crimes and Tsunami Crimes.

A freak lightning storm unleashes its energy on Central Florida. Bolts of lightning crash to the ground. Torrential rain soaks everything within seconds. And the power goes out, casting Beth and Donovan's apartment into darkness. Beth is already on edge after receiving a menacing phone call several months ago, and this storm doesn't help with her nerves.

Donovan tries to distract her from Mother Nature's tantrum, but someone else has other plans. When they find the front door to their apartment wide open, they soon realize it isn't an accident. Someone is in their apartment with them.

What crime can happen as fast as lightning?
