A man living on a Florida barrier island must protect his family from both an approaching hurricane and a relentless killer.
Jake Powell is racing to get off the island as a powerful hurricane approaches. When he finds his best friend Dallas, the building manager, dead from a blow to the skull, Jake realizes there's more than the storm to fear. There's a murderer on the island, maybe even still inside the nearly abandoned building.
Dallas had repeatedly run afoul of the wealthy owners of the building by complaining about code violations and the precarious state of the condos. But he'd also once told Jake that every resident had a secret they'd come to Florida to escape. Had one of them killed to conceal their sins? As a dozen people shelter together in hopes of surviving the deadly hurricane, a second murder makes it all too clear: one of them is a dangerous killer.

A quick summer read. Overall a good mystery and amount of suspense, but pretty predictable.
The book was in excellent condition. Delivery was prompt.
I really enjoyed this story about Jake and the residents of an old building that end up fighting for their lives against a category three hurricane and an ominous threat in the night. David always writes novels that capture my attention right away and this was no different. I was glued to my e-reader the entire time.
I have read all of David Bell’s books and I have enjoyed each and every one. I have one question…who wrote this book?! It was utter nonsense, unrealistic and with unlikeable characters (except for the lead one). I kept reading it hoping for some big surprise ending. A big nope! A silly ending to go with a silly unbelievable story.
Exciting and suspenseful book that will keep you eagerly turning the pages until the very end. If you want a taste of how it feels to weather one of these massive storms, then this book will definitely whet your appetite.
