Season of Fear

A STORM'S WRATH. AN ASSASSIN'S RETURN. As a fierce tropical storm swirls toward the Florida coast, the state's powerful political circles are experiencing turbulence of their own. The leading candidate for governor, Diane Fairmont, has received a death threat that promises to repeat a massacre from ten years before. Bad weather and bad blood await Detective Cab Bolton - who must withstand the malevolent cyclone in order to stop this murderous cycle.

"Season of Fear has everything: unexpected plot twists that keep on coming, a smart and charming hero, and a setting that's as sultry and dangerous as a tropical storm. It will blow you away."--Linda Castillo, New York Times-bestselling author, "Season of Fear kicks into high gear as it combines the police procedural with the political thriller, never neglecting the tenets of each while exploring the best of both categories of mystery fiction . . . Freeman enthusiastically delves into the machinations of Florida politics with realistic behind-the-scenes details. The tightly coiled plot erupts in several directions, each plausible and believable to anyone the least bit familiar with Florida politics."--Florida Sun Sentinel, "A highly entertaining mystery about personal legacies and the politics of privilege . . . I'm thrilled to have Cab back between the covers of a book."--The Minneapolis Star Tribune, "A hurricane-force thriller . . . More twists and turns than a tornado."--Peterborough Telegraph, "Fans of Freeman, whether in Duluth, across Minn-esota, or around the world, have come to appreciate his vivid descriptions, brisk action, relatable characters, and page-turning prose . . . Season of Fear establishes new stars in Bolton and Piper and a new storyline that will leave readers eager to devour more.--Chuck Frederick, The Duluth News Tribune
