Book Description

Publication Date: May 29, 2007

'In, EYE OF THE STORM, James A. Forrest proves he has a passion for Florida, and an understanding of this crazy state's quirks. This is a writer to watch." Randy Wayne White In the Eye of the Storm, charter Captain Jack Foster tries to live a simple life and leave his past as a cold case investigator behind him, but when he finds the body of his friend Capt. Tom in the mangroves it's not that easy. When Capt. Tom's killers learn of Jack's interest in the investigation they decide to take care of him and his daughter, Katelyn, before they are discovered. While defending against attack, trying to figure out clues, and protecting his daughter, massive Hurricane Lynn churns in the Gulf of Mexico and is bearing down on them. Out numbered and out gunned, will Jack be able to solve the murder and evade the wrath of Mother Nature or are his and Katelyn's fates sealed like Capt. Tom's?

5.0 out of 5 stars A Must Read, August 23, 2007

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)

This review is from: Eye of the Storm (Paperback)

I took Eye of the Storm on vacation with me along with 15 other books; I chose to read Eye of the Storm first as it caught my "eye" with its great cover, and I was not disappointed. Once I started reading this tale of mystery and suspense--murder and mahem--set in southwestern Florida along the Gulf Coast, I did not put it down until I read the last words. This first novel by James Forrest is definitely a winner, and I look forward to a sequel--there must be one?? And until then, I plan to read the novel again.

L. McCorkle "Larry" (in Florida) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Eye of the Storm (Paperback)

This is a quick paced, thrilling, action packed book. It's a great read for traveling through airports or sitting home recovering from surgery-ouch.
James A. Forrest's "Eye of the Storm" is one novel that any reader could enjoy and appreciate. However, native Floridians--and even fishing enthusiasts--could glean even more out of this perfect "made for TV movie" type novel. Someone--if not all--members of your family will enjoy this read.
