Night of the Twisters: The Most Dangerous Night of Their Lives is an audiobook about the tornado that hit Emporia and destroyed over 5,000 homes in 1947. Ivy Ruckman tells the story of how she and her family experienced this dark night. This book was written to give people a different perspective on what happened during and after the storm. Ivy talks about how she felt lost without her parents during the aftermath, despite all they had gone through as a family before.

"As the tornado approaches, so does the shivering. After an hour of sitting in our car, waiting for what we think will be the end, I get out with my brother and we walk back to find our mother. We're both screaming at her to come with us and she's not moving."

Ivy Ruckman and her friends and family gathered together for a small picnic to celebrate the Fourth of July. But when the weather was too hot, they decided to take a trip to the lake. As they were driving home, the car felt like it was going to flip over from all of the wind that was blowing. And then they saw sparks in the sky and then a tornado swirling around them as they were trying to get out of their car and away from the tornado.

Ivy Ruckman, a single mother of four, lives in an isolated community by the lake. This night was supposed to be just like any other--Ivy's husband was out of town on business and her children were finally old enough that they could stay home alone for more than a few hours. What starts as a typical evening quickly turns into one of the worst nights of their lives. Violent tornados rip through their small town, tossing mobile homes high into the air and hurling them at unlucky bystanders.

The Twisters tore through the small town of Twin Falls, Idaho with a fury, killing one man instantly and injuring fifteen others. Three lives were lost that night.
