Hurricane Hole by John Kerr

A gripping combination of espionage and tragic love is set against the backdrop of the tropical Bahamas and the celebrated murder of Sir Harry Oakes, the wealthiest man in the British Empire

Tom Hamilton, a young American undercover agent, arrives in Nassau in late 1942, when German U-boats are sinking dozens of Allied merchant ships in the Caribbean. Posing as a playboy, Hamilton has been sent by his Washington bosses to investigate Nils Ericsson, a Swedish industrialist with known ties to the Nazis, whom he suspects is building a case for the U-boat fleet in Hurricane Hole. Hamilton falls in love with a beautiful Englishwoman, Evelyn Shawcross, but with her affiliation to both Ericsson and the Duke of Windsor, wartime governor of the Bahamas, his operation to foil the plot could prove hazardous and deadly.

John Kerr grew up in Southern California and attended 6 different schools by 9th grade, due to a regular request for his dismissal. He has worked as a producer/director for NBC and CBS in Hawaii and as a scriptwriter in Hollywood. He currently lives in Riverside with his wife, three dogs and two cats. Kerr has made it a point to never live more than 10 minutes away from a good Mexican restaurant.
