Product Description
After ten years, FBI Agent Mick Kline thought he had put his past behind him. But when mysterious letters start arriving at his house, Mick finds himself drawn back to a case that had been solved ten years ago--a murder case in which Mick had once been the prime suspect. Mick's investigation leads him to a man on death row for a crime he claims he didn't commit and the homicide detective who handled the case. As Mick gets close to discovering the truth, a woman he cares about is kidnapped and held hostage. It's a race against time as Mick rushes to stop a murderer before he kills again. |

Storm Surge by L. Hilton (Horseshoe Bend, Arkansas)  5 Stars
September 07, 2006
I loved this book, and I loved Mick. The characters and setting were so realistically drawn that I almost expected to turn on the television and find reports of a category five hurricane or a murder investigation going on. I recommend reading the three books in order because they are closely tied in together. I LOVE this series, and Rene's books.

Character packed by R. Wheatley (Las Vegas, NV) 5 Stars
April 17, 2006
Rene has an incredible talent for character developement. The characters she creates are people you've known, or wish you had. She draws a reader into the lives of her character in a way that makes you regret their loss when you finish her books. Rene traps you with her storyline from the first sentence and carries you through to the non-stop ending.
The twist and turns of Rene's Storm Series are the cause of a sleepless night or two and then again as you wait for the next book in the series. Teh ending is then a cause of some frustration when you realize you won't hear of these friends again.

Great conclusion to the series by Bill Garrison (Oklahoma City, OK USA) 5 Stars
April 09, 2006
Storm Surge is the third book in a series involving Mick Kline, who in the series has been an FBI agent, storm chaser, accountant, football coach, fugitive and then and FBI agent again.
The second book in this series revealed that a killer was still on the loose and this book adresses that mystery as well as some new ones. In my opinion, the second book should definitely be read before this one. It isn't necessary to read the first book to enjoy the next two.
Sammy Earle, the sleazy lawyer from the last book, is on death row and believes he is innocent. He doesn't care about his life, but he does want someone to know that here is a killer that is still roaming free. Earle contacts Mick Kline and Mick agrees to take a look a the case since his deceased brother had taken an interest in it.
The best part of the book for me is the love triangle hapless Mick finds himself in. Mick has never had much success with women, but somehow finds himself in love with three women and having to juggle time with them. The first is Jenny, his deceased brother's wife and a woman he once loved. The second is Faith, a woman he saved from danger in the first book and who is finally over the death of her husband. The final is Libby Lancaster, the ATF agent with a tough shell hiding a damaged woman on the inside.
Mick is working with Libby to solve a string of fires that may or may not be insurance fraud. Mich manages to penetrate her hardened shell of cynicism and soon a romance develops as they try and find out who is setting the fires and if Sammy Earle is innocent.
This is a good book that I'd recommend to anyone. My only problem is that Mich chose a girl other than one I would have chosen. Oh well.

The trilogy comes to a powerful ending by Brian Reaves (Anniston, AL USA) 5 Stars
February 01, 2006
I love Rene's previous novels, and this one is no exception. It brings her "Storm" series to a satisfying conclusion and really makes it work. It's not every day you have a trilogy like this involving a central character and theme, yet possible to read in any order and still enjoy. Another winner!
