Welcome back to Camino Island, where anything can happen\u2014even a murder in the midst of a hurricane, which might prove to be the perfect crime . . .<\/p>\n
Just as Bruce Cable\u2019s Bay Books is preparing for the return of bestselling author Mercer Mann, Hurricane Leo veers from its predicted course and heads straight for the island. Florida\u2019s governor orders a mandatory evacuation, and most residents board up their houses and flee to the mainland, but Bruce decides to stay and ride out the storm.<\/p>\n
The hurricane is devastating: homes and condos are leveled, hotels and storefronts ruined, streets flooded, and a dozen people lose their lives. One of the apparent victims is Nelson Kerr, a friend of Bruce\u2019s and an author of thrillers. But the nature of Nelson\u2019s injuries suggests that the storm wasn\u2019t the cause of his death: He has suffered several suspicious blows to the head.<\/p>\n
Who would want Nelson dead? The local police are overwhelmed in the aftermath of the storm and ill equipped to handle the case. Bruce begins to wonder if the shady characters in Nelson\u2019s novels might be more real than fictional. And somewhere on Nelson\u2019s computer is the manuscript of his new novel. Could the key to the case be right there\u2014in black and white? As Bruce starts to investigate, what he discovers between the lines is more shocking than any of Nelson\u2019s plot twists\u2014and far more dangerous.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
