South of Nowhere by Jeffery Deaver

In a race against time and nature, there’s only one man you want on your side.

In northern California, a small town teeters on the brink of disaster as flood waters bear down on it. Colter Shaw, however, is on an even more urgent rescue mission – a family swept away in the initial deluge. The clock is ticking, and their survival window is rapidly closing. However, the impending disaster raises questions – is the town’s vulnerability a natural occurrence, or is there a more human element at work?

Jeffery Deaver with his new book, SOUTH OF NOWHERE

Reward seeker Colter Shaw races against the clock to save a flooding town from a full-fledged disaster.

When a levee collapses in a small town in Northern California, Colter Shaw is brought on by his sister, Dorion, a disaster response specialist, to help locate a family swept away by the raging water. But after a surprise attack along the river obstructs Colter’s urgent search, the siblings are forced to consider a new reality: Is the levee at risk of failing from natural causes, or is someone sabotaging it?

South Of Nowhere is available now in hardcover, eBook, and audiobook in the USA and Canada, and will be out later this week in the UK, Ireland, Australia, and New Zealand. The Italian translation of South Of Nowhere will be released in July.
