In this new thriller set on Camino Island, popular bookseller Bruce Cable tells Mercer Mann an irresistible tale that might be her next novel. A giant resort developer is using its political muscle and deep pockets to claim ownership of a deserted island between Florida and Georgia. Only the last living inhabitant of the island, Lovely Jackson, stands in its way.

What the developer doesn’t know is that the island has a remarkable history, and locals believe it is cursed… and the past is never the past…

John Grisham, no.1 bestselling author and master of the legal thriller, takes us back to paradise. Filled with unpredictable twists, the return to Camino Island is guaranteed to be this summer’s perfect escape.
