About the author
Michael Lindley
50 books111 followersMichael Lindley is a #1 bestselling Amazon author for "Mystery Thriller & Romantic Suspense" with his debut novel THE EMMALEE AFFAIRS.
His more recent "Hanna Walsh and Alex Frank Low Country Suspense Thriller" series ranked #1 on Amazon for Mystery and Suspense series. The "Hanna and Alex" stories are set in Charleston, Pawleys Island and the fictional Dugganville, South Carolina.
His stories feature love and relationships challenged by the troubled waters of betrayal, tragic loss, and the many dark and unforeseen forces that can lie just below the surface of our fragile lives.
All of Michael's books are set in idyllic locales and often compelling historical contexts. The settings include a remote resort town in Northern Michigan in the 1940's, 50's and present-day; Atlanta and Grayton Beach Florida in the turbulent 1920's as well in current times; and most recently, 1860's and present-day Charleston, Pawleys Island and the fictional Dugganville, South Carolina.
Michael writes full-time now, stepping away from a career in Marketing and Advertising and divides his time between Northern Michigan and Florida. He and his wife, Karen, are also on an annual quest to visit the country's spectacular national parks.
"You will often find that writers are compelled to write what they love to read.
I've always been drawn to stories that are built around an idyllic time and place as much as the characters who grace these locations. As the heroes and villains come to life in my favorite stories, facing life's challenges of love and betrayal and great danger, I also enjoy coming to deeply understand the setting for the story and how it shapes the characters and the conflicts they face.
I've also been drawn to books built around a mix of past and present, allowing me to know a place and the people who live there in both a compelling historical context, as well as in present-day.
Writers like Pat Conroy and Kristin Hannah grace my bookshelves along with Ian McEwen, Dennis Lehane, Amor Towles, Anita Shreve, Lisa Wingate, William Kent Krueger and on and on. I need more bookshelves! ML

According to Michael Lindley, this is Hanna and Alex's biggest danger so far in the series. They have to try to solve the murder of their friend and a terrorist attack as well. This is an action-packed series and worth the entertaining read time.

Best of the Series!
I love this series when I read the first book in this series it was a great book and I read it straight through in a day. It was great and I knew I wanted to read more of Micheal Lindley’s books and I have read all and this was my favorite probably because he has me entranced with Hannah and Alex and this one was a nail biter. Can’t wait for #6. Going to start the previous series now. Micheal Lindley is my new favorite author!

When an old friend of Hanna Walsh and Alex Frank is murdered, they are brought into help with the case. The case brings them into the area of a major terrorist threat. The person behind the terrorist cell seems to be a successful businessman in the Charleston area. His plot is nationwide, an attack on major city harbors. some of those persons involved also seem to have a personal grudge against Alex and Hanna.

Great mystery
Great story line about a person looking to terrorise harbors, and the group he hopes to blame. There are rumours of corruption of man who is trying to protect the environment. Interesting new challenge for Hanna and Alex.

5 stars for The Harbor Storms. Another Hanna and Alex Low Country Book 5. Hanna and Alex get involved in the middle of a terrorist attack. Hanna was shot and Alex captured and tortured. Can these two ever get a break? A wonderful tale of suspense.

Thoroughly enjoyed this series! It kept you entertained all the way through. I am glad Alex and Hanna ended up together and happy and the bad guys didn’t win. I would read Michael Lindley again

A lot of repetition but a good story. Audio narration was great

Kept my in the edge of my seat but I was a bit stressed about the implications of the terrorist group. He handled it well enough, but it was a thin line.

Not as good as the previous ones
Too much potential terror attacks
The best part of the series is the setting in Charleston
Let’s hope others in this series go back to what made it interesting

How on Earth does this have so many 4 and 5 star reviews? It's almost painful to read. How many blows to the head can one detective suffer and still be fit for duty. How many stupid decisions can one attorney make before someone finally offs her? It just keeps getting worse with each book...

I recommend diving into this series!
