"A perfect storm of menace...breathtaking The underwater scenes are
marvelous, and the portrait of the monstrous hurricane as it
batters the key and surges over it is mightily gripping." --the
Florida Weekly... Death Sweeps in off the Gulf of Mexico... An
ageless, impossible corpse at the bottom of the sea. A lethal
plague. A ruthless murderer. A monster hurricane. Archaeologist
Carson Grant came to Brigands Key to escape the limelight and
repair his shattered reputation, and finds himself instead staring
down the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse. When Carson Grant
discovers the body of a man at the bottom of the sea, suspicion of
murder falls squarely upon him. Citizens mysteriously begin to fall
ill and die, others disappear, and others are murdered, while an
ambitious governor and an unbending president engage in a battle of
wills over the fate of Brigands Key. With a hurricane bearing down
on the quarantined island, Grant enlists infectious diseases
researcher Kyoko Nakamura and teen misfit Charley Fawcett in a
desperate race against time to break the spiral of death and
unravel the mystery of a decades-old corpse and a staggeringly
valuable prize shrouded in secrets of the past. Pitted against them
is a killer who will stop at nothing to claim that prize. Winner of
the Royal Palm Literary Award, Brigands Key is an edge-of-your-seat
roller coaster ride through murder, vengeance, and secrets best
left undisturbed.
