Bellamy Lyston was only 12 years old when her older sister Susan was killed on a stormy Memorial Day. Bellamy's fear of storms is a legacy of the tornado that destroyed the crime scene along with her memory of what really happened during the day's most devastating moments. Now, 18 years later, Bellamy has written a sensational, best-selling novel based on Susan's murder. Because the book was inspired by the tragic event that still pains her family, she published it under a pseudonym to protect them from unwanted publicity. But an opportunistic reporter for a tabloid newspaper discovers that the book is based on fact....

Easy Listen
I bought this book because I loved Don Bruns "Stuff to Die For". This story was easy to get into and kept me interested. You'll learn little things about the music industry without too much detail. The characters and narration were good enough that I bought and listened to the second book in the series "Barbados Heat" right away. I don't like them as well as the "Stuff" book but will continue to listen to the series.

Great mystery, and well told.
I thoroughly enjoyed Jamaica Blue. I really felt like I was along for the ride. The characters were great, and I couldn't put it down as I got towards the end. I look forward to reading many more of Don Bruns's books.

Inside the expensive car he finds clothes that fit perfectly, shoes for his tattered feet, a Rolex, and an auto registration in the name of Daniel Hayes, resident of Malibu, California.

While he searches for answers, the world searches for him - beginning with the cops that kick in the door of his dingy motel with guns drawn. Lost and alone, the man who might be Daniel Hayes flees into the night. All he remembers is a woman’s face, so he sets off for the only place he might find her.
