Islands

Romantic suspense and adventure in the Caribbean:

“Welcome to Paradise,” archeologist Susan Dunne hears on arrival at the Caribbean island to research petroglyphs and unravel the mystery of her brother’s drowning. Was it murder? This sunny tourist mecca conceals shadowy secrets — violent native unrest, a sunken treasure ship guarded by legendary Jumbies, and a bloodthirsty cult. Can Susan resist her attraction to her number one suspect, unpredictable combat vet Vic Manden? The most disturbing secrets she must explore are the ones hidden in her erratic psychic visions, clues that challenge her notions of truth and reality.

“A superior mystery and suspense novel with solid characters, some very spooky goings-on, and lots of wonderful writing… An intellectual thriller? Absolutely. But don’t let that make you think there is anything even vaguely dull or pretentious about ‘Islands.’ It’s a fast read, a stomping, vivid ride, the work of a woman who is passionate about lots of things.”
» Dan Hays, Statesman Journal

“Intense and gripping… you’ll be caught up in this one.”
–Don D’Ammassa, Chronicle Magazine

"A contemporary thriller that combines the lure of the Caribbean with gritty reality... Mystical, romantic, intellectually and viscerally stimulating."  *-Chanticleer Reviews*
