Publisher Description
A STORM IS BREWING ON CAMINO ISLAND.
When a hurricane threatens an island just off the coast of Florida, a small group of diehard residents watch as their neighbours flee the coming storm.
But for one of them, staying is a fatal mistake. When the body is first discovered in the wreckage, the police dismiss the death as accidental. But Bruce Cable is unconvinced. It falls to him to uncover the truth.
But what Cable unearths is far more dangerous than any hurricane...

PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
The murder of popular thriller writer Nelson Kerr during a hurricane drives bestseller Grisham's exciting follow-up to 2017's Camino Island. In the hurricane's aftermath, the Camino Island police are too preoccupied to handle the case competently, so Nelson's bookseller friend, Bruce Cable, the endearing though roguish leader of the Florida resort island's literary society, and his pals ex-con crime writer J. Andrew Cobb and bookstore intern Nick Sutton obtain permission from Nelson's relatives to investigate. The discovery of Nelson's unpublished final novel, concerning Medicare fraud, conceivably holds the key to his death. Believing the manuscript is fact posing as fiction, Bruce retains the services of a dodgy security firm to infiltrate nursing homes. This effort leads to more murders, a cover-up, and a massive FBI operation to bring the book's villains to justice. Grisham peoples the intriguing, elaborate plot with a winsome ensemble of distinguished authors and booklovers. Readers will hope to return soon to this appealing vacation hot spot.
Customer Reviews
The wind picks up
I thought it was a good read, for my holiday I finished it a day early. Thanks
Tails off
Bit slow at the start, but I stuck with it as it’s John Grisham. However seems uncharacteristically dull in the middle and tails off towards the end. No this best.
Poor
Poor don’t bother
