Just read about a book called "Wildwood Exit" a crime novel set in - you guessed it! - Wildwood, NJ. Sounds like something in the Lawrence Block or Robert Parker vein. Not sure if the author, Joel E. Turner, is from South Jersey.

Just saw that South Jersey's popular weatherman Nick Pittman - aka Nor'Easter Nick - has written a memoir titled "Rain Date" that is due out in January '26 - it's up on Amazon, so I imagine it's possible to pre-order.

Just read about another book called "The Ghost Of Me" by Bill Le Fleur - it's fiction but based on an actual murder than took place in Egg Harbor back in the 60s. It's only available on Kindle.
