A reporter in Florida, Jake Arnett, covers the baffling murder of a mother and daughter seeking a new life - a story that requires every ounce of investigative skill, commitment, and compassion he can muster. Arnett works against a backdrop of decline and despair in print journalism that jeopardizes the newspaper he works for, and the life and career of his closest friend. and "Journalist David Holmberg has defined a fictional Florida of post-modern bleakness, where hurricanes prowl menacingly and nearly every place seems a venue for anxiety, fear, failure, and even suicide - especially after a chillingly hard-to-fathom murder of a mother and daughter. Haunted by the story, reporter Jake Arnett becomes obsessed with finding their killer or killers, with putting at least one thing right. This is a noir that goes even deeper into the darkness than our foundational writers of the genre. and " - Jack Vitek, author of The Godfather of Generoso Pope Jr. and the National Enquirer. and "David Holmberg, a veteran reporter, brings all the accumulated knowledge of years in the news business to The Hurricane Murders. In relentlessly fast-paced prose that's as strong as a category five storm, he captures the passion of the Florida journalists who hunt out the truths concealed behind the sun and fun images we associate with that beckoning locale. He pulls this together into a dynamic thriller that will keep folks turning the pages deep into the night. and " - John Katzenbach, acclaimed author of Hart's War, Just Cause, and other novels.
