博客來Hollow is an extraordinary island in the Pacific Northwest, a picturesque ecological wonder with more than a little bit of magic...and now, a mysterious dead body.
The inhabitants of Hollow are as varied as the island’s natural environment: Among them are Jack Karlsson, a musician and wolf conservationist, and his young assistant, Luis, who’s transforming Jack’s property into a blueberry farm; Tomas, who is suffering from PTSD from his time in the military, and local police woman Sahara Moses; and, for the summer, Jack’s niece Esther, with whom he hasn’t been in touch for years. When a dead man washes up on shore, something unlocks in each of them, until Tomas’s obsession with his Nagual, a werewolf-like creature in Aztec lore, brings them all to the brink and forces the real story out into the light.
To imagine the world of Summer Fruit, author Renee Humphrey drew on her own full life that has connected her with many different challenges, opportunities, and real-life characters, as well as her extensive research into global narratives about wolves. This page-turner will capture anyone who wants to escape into a verdant, remote island world while exploring how human connection may be the only way we can truly heal and save ourselves.
