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. "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." - Jack Vitek, author of The Godfather of Tabloid: Generoso Pope
Jr. and the National Enquirer. "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." - John Katzenbach, acclaimed author of Hart's War, Just
Cause, and other novels.
