Kem Nunn is widely considered the inventor of "surf noir," blending hard-boiled crime with authentic surfing atmosphere.
If you’re looking for a thriller that swaps gritty urban alleys for sun-bleached boardwalks and dark waves, look no further than Kem Nunn’s seminal debut, (also known as Huntington Beach ).
The novel was a major inspiration for the cult classic film Point Break .
Described as "Cormac McCarthy set in Huntington," the book captures the heat and grit of 1980s California like nothing else.
