Camino Winds

Bestselling author Mercer Mann is set to return to Bruce Cable’s Bay Books just as Hurricane Leo unexpectedly changes course and slams into the island. While most residents evacuate, Bruce stays behind to face the storm.

The hurricane leaves widespread destruction—homes flattened, streets flooded, and several lives lost. Among the dead is Nelson Kerr, a thriller writer and Bruce’s friend. But the suspicious injuries on Nelson’s body suggest foul play rather than a storm-related death.

With the local police overwhelmed, Bruce takes it upon himself to investigate. He suspects that the dark plots in Nelson’s novels might have roots in reality—and that Nelson’s unfinished manuscript may hold the clues to his murder. As Bruce digs deeper, he uncovers shocking truths that are more dangerous than any fictional crime.
