Anne Wingate: The Eye of Anna (USA 1991)
From the Publisher:
The Fury of Nature, and of Man
Police chief Mark Shigata already has his hands full dealing with the damage that Hurricane Anna is causing as it slams into the gulf town of Bayport, Texas. Then he gets the call. A prominent neurosurgeon's wife has been gruesomely murdered in her bed. As the storm intensifies, so does the horror. The mutilated bodies of three young women are discovered in a nearby apartment. Together with officer Al Quinn, Shigata battles the raging winds and rains to hunt down the killer, not knowing that the maniac has already selected his next victims-Shigata's daughter and the woman he loves.
