Publisher's Note
When a ferocious hurricane rips through southern Florida, the con artists and carpetbaggers waste no time in swarming over the disaster area. Caught in the middle are Max and Bonnie Lamb, newlyweds torn in wildly different directions by the storm. It is Max's fateful decision to abort their Disney World honeymoon and race to Dade County to see the terrible devastation. Armed with a video camera, the ambitious young advertising executive can't wait to show his hurricane tapes to his buddies back in New York. Over Bonnie's objections, Max eagerly sets out through the rubble, debris and mayhem - and promptly vanishes. The only clue to his whereabouts: a runaway monkey. The only person who can help Bonnie's search: a mysterious young man with a tranquilizer gun and a roomful of human skulls.

Industry Reviews
"A direct comedic descendant of the Marx Brothers...'Storm Warning' is another roaring success."
Chicago Tribune Books - Gary Dretzks (08/13/1995)

"...the sixth in a very good run, is caustic and comic."
McAleer

A hilarious, black humor thriller."
Olsen

"raucous, scathing but never mean-spirited, "Stormy Weather," goes a long way toward securing Hiaasen's place as America's premier satirist."
Olsen

"Hysterically funny...Hiaasen at his satirical best."
Olsen

"Hiaasen's comedy grows blacker by the book; more brilliant, too. The great absurdist on peak form. You feel he could choreograph Armageddon."
Olsen

"The ability to lay down insane humor on a page so that people laugh so hard their bodies and minds change, their blood pressure goes down, and they giggle for years afterward is an amazing gift. Carl Hiaasen has it."
Shapiro
