Queen of the Waves intertwines the stories of two significant events that shaped the upper Texas Gulf Coast: the Great Storm of 1900 and the 'secret' 1943 hurricane that hit Galveston during WWII. Through the experiences of Marie Covington and Woodrow Harris, the narrative highlights the resilience of a remarkable community. While Marie faces the threat of losing everything in 1943, Woodrow has already endured the ultimate loss in 1900. His painful journey of survival imparts lessons on true resilience and the enduring power of love.
