A Jazz-Noir Novel by Ricardo Islas Guerra
Jack was never a hero. Just a burned-out stockbroker running from himself-through smoky bars and bloodstained alleyways. His journey takes him from the gleaming skyscrapers of New York to the forests of rural America, across the scorching deserts of Las Vegas, and finally into the fog-drenched streets of San Francisco.
When he falls for Lily-a beautiful, ruthless woman with a plan to burn the world down-he's pulled into a deadly spiral of murder, betrayal, and obsession. At his side, Renee: an Irish rebel with a broken heart and a thirst for vengeance. Together, they become fugitives, lovers, enemies... and something more.
With the FBI closing in and the mafia out for blood, Jack must decide what he truly believes in-before the final note plays.
Part noir, part fever dream, and entirely visceral, Wild is the Wind is an epic, jazz-infused journey through the dark heart of America-a haunting story of longing, loss, and the price of choosing love over logic.
