Ali McNamara – författare

En ny fristående del i Ali McNamaras omåttligt populära serie om St Felix! 

Meteorologen Sky tycker inte om överraskningar. Efter en längre tids sjukskrivning tar hon ett enkelt uppdrag på en ö utanför kuststaden St Felix i Cornwall. Där ska hon bevaka vädret efter att det inkommit en rad märkliga väderrapporter. Även om Sky egentligen är alldeles för överkvalificerad för jobbet ser hon fram emot att äntligen få börja arbeta igen. Vad hon inte har räknat med är att hon också måste samarbeta med Sonny Samuels - en självsäker och pladdrig väderpresentatör som knappt kan skilja på en storm och en tsunami.

Men snart inser Sky att det faktiskt är något skumt som pågår i St Felix. Och det handlar inte bara om vädret. Med hjälp av Sonny och Walter, en äldre amatörmeteorolog som har sina egna metoder, försöker Sky lösa mysteriet. Samtidigt måste hon hålla sin dolda sjukdom i schack och när de närmar sig gåtans lösning tvingas Sky ifrågasätta allt hon trodde att hon visste om vädret, sig själv ... och Sonny.
