Whirlaway, his 1st novel, set in '83, out in '94, is back, buffed and seasoned, with an epic romp of that era. Robert Wintner is the nom de plume of Snorkel Bob, Hawaii's biggest reef outfitter. He lives on Maui with his wife Anita and is still true blue on ocean conservation.
The Brief
Book description
What happens when two young entrepreneurs inherit nothing and decide to rob a bank the modern way, with lies on paper to finance a sailing yacht? On signatures and handshakes, the future brightens with enough drugs to suspend the NFL, enough liquor to make sagebrush soggy and women with no bones.
