And somewhere on Nelson's computer is the manuscript of his new novel - could the key to the case be right there, in black and white? Bruce starts to look into it and what he finds between the lines is more shocking than any of Nelson's plot twists - and far more dangerous. Bruce begins to wonder if the shady characters in Nelson's novels were more fact than fiction. Who would want Nelson dead? The local police are overwhelmed with the aftermath of the storm and in no condition to handle the case. But evidence suggests that the storm wasn't the cause of Nelson's death - he had received several mysterious blows to the head. One of the victims is Nelson Kerr, a friend of Bruce's who wrote timely political thrillers. The hurricane is devastating: homes and condos are levelled, hotels and storefronts ruined, streets flooded, and a dozen people are killed. Amongst them is Bruce Cable, proprietor of Bay Books in downtown Santa Rosa. Most residents flee but a small group of diehards decide to ride it out.
