Publisher Description

Category Five is a new supernatural YA thriller from Ann Dávila Cardinal, set against the backdrop of a post-hurricane Puerto Rico.

After the hurricane, some see destruction and some smell blood.


The tiny island of Vieques, located just off the northeastern coast of the main island of Puerto Rico, is trying to recover after hurricane Maria, but the already battered island is now half empty. To make matters worse, as on the main island, developers have come in to buy up the land at a fraction of its worth, taking advantage of the island when it is down.

Lupe, Javier, and Marisol are back to investigate a series of murders that follow in the wake of a hurricane and in the shadow of a new supernatural threat.

At the Publisher's request, this title is being sold without Digital Rights Management Software (DRM) applied.

“I HATED THIS BOOK SO MUCH! I WISH IT WAS NEVER WRITTEN! Everything that the characters went through the first book just completely IGNORE all that and make it the most boring and predictable story ever just to give us a lesson or something. I’m from Puerto Rico and was present during Hurricane Maria and this was such a cash grab. I hate everything about Marisol in this book (I don’t care for her). I’ll never forgive the author for MASSACRING my boy, Javier’s entire arc from last book (he was the only reason the first book was good in the first place). Lupe didn’t deserve him AT ALL. If I could give this book less this one star I would. idk if this was a blatant cash grab for the actual pain the people endured during Hurricane Maria. The villain was so predictable and the plot was so nonessential it made me laugh. Save your money and forget this book exits. It’s a shame really because I really wanted to support a Puerto Rican author.”
“More of a 2.5 star as I wish the author had spent more focus on either the serial killer or the ghosts - we didn’t need both!”
