Camino Winds - John Grisham

#1 NEW YORK TIMES AND USA TODAY BESTSELLER "The perfect crime scene ... in the type of wild but
smart caper that Grisham's readers love."-Delia Owens, author of Where the Crawdads Sing


Just
as Bruce Cable's Bay Books is preparing for the return of bestselling
author Mercer Mann, Hurricane Leo veers from its predicted course and
heads straight for Camino Island. Florida's 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.

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's and an author of thrillers. But the nature of Nelson's injuries
suggests that the storm wasn't the cause of his death: He has suffered
several suspicious blows to the head.

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's novels might be more real than fictional. And somewhere on Nelson's computer is the
manuscript of his new book. Could the key to the case be right there-in
black and white? As Bruce starts to investigate, what he discovers
between the lines is more shocking than any of Nelson's plot twists-and far more dangerous.
