Books like Hurricane Bay by Heather Graham

Dane Whitelaw, a seasoned private investigator, is rattled by a photo of his former lover Sheila Warren—strangled on his private island in the Florida Keys. The discovery coincides with a series of murders linked to a Florida serial killer. Dane quickly realizes he is being set up to take the blame. When Kelsey Cunningham’s best friend goes missing, Kelsey seeks Dane’s help, suspecting he holds vital clues. She follows Sheila’s trail into a perilous world of sex, violence, and drugs. Their tentative alliance crumbles when Sheila’s body is found again and Kelsey recognizes Dane’s tie on the corpse. Trust dissolves, and a storm—both literal and emotional—threatens to destroy all on Hurricane Bay. With a backdrop of Miami terror, a serial murder investigation, and complex man‑woman dynamics, the story weaves intrigue, romance, and danger, leaving few characters—and no one—safe.
