Randy Wayne White is the bestselling and award-winning author of the prolific and longstanding Doc Ford series. In 2022, Randy endured Hurricane Ian on Sanibel Island in Florida, which caused historic damage, destroying houses and knocking out the only bridge to the island. Randy stayed on the island through the storm, unreachable for a tenuous period. Now, he’s rebuilding, like everyone else on the island.

This dramatic experience became the inspiration for his new Doc Ford novel ONE DEADLY EYE (Hanover Square Press) as Ford rides out the deadliest storm to hit the island in a century and tries to stop a gang of criminals who swoop in to take advantage of the evacuation and pillage and kill, during the twelve hours of chaos that follow the passing of a storm’s dangerous eye.

Here, White combines his expertise of nature writing, Florida, and masterful craft of crime thrillers, to bring us ONE DEADLY EYE.

MORE ABOUT THE BOOK:

A Russian diplomat disappears while Doc is tagging great white sharks in South Africa, and members of a criminal brotherhood, Bratva, don’t think it’s a coincidence. They track the biologist to Dinkin’s Bay Marina on the west coast of Florida, where Brotherhood mercenaries have already deployed, prepared to pillage and kill in the wake of an approaching hurricane.

No one, however, is prepared for a cataclysmic event that will forever change the island and leaves Doc to deal with escapees from Russia’s most dangerous prison, including a serial killer—the Vulture Monk—who has a taste for blood. His only ally is an enigmatic British inventor whose decision to ride out the storm might have more to do with revenge than protecting a priceless art collection.

Doc has a lot at stake—the lives of his fiancée, Hannah Smith, and their son, plus the fate of his hipster pal, Tomlinson, whose sailboat has disappeared in the Gulf of Mexico. The greatest threat of all, though, is a force that cannot be escaped—a Category Five hurricane that, minute by minute, melds sins of the past with Florida's precarious future.

ABOUT THE AUTHOR:

He lives on Sanibel Island, Florida, where he was a light-tackle fishing guide for many years, and spends much of his free time windsurfing, playing baseball, and hanging out at Doc Ford's Rum Bar & Grille. Sharks Incorporated is his middle grade series, including Fins and Stingers.
