Scott Thoma’s book, Out of the Blue, is a true story about two sisters and their incredible survival of one of the most powerful tornados in Minnesota history.

Synopsis: Newlyweds, Linda (Haugen) Vaske and her husband Clifford
Vaske had been finalizing adoption paperwork on two-year-old Nancy
Vlahos when Clifford left for military training in Washington. On the
night of the tornado, Linda, her 8-year-old sister Pam and Nancy were at
the Vaskes' home south of town. Linda, holding tightly onto Nancy, and
Pam were unable to reach the basement in time. All three were blown
out of the house. Linda was unable to maintain her grasp on Nancy.
Although the sisters suffered serious injuries, both survived. However,
Nancy's lifeless body was found on a street a block away. The sisters
will never forget that night and rarely a day goes by that they do not
think about the little girl who was taken from them.
