Psychologist-detective Dr. Alex Delaware is drawn into a sinister mystery during a three-month stay on the idyllic Pacific island of Aruk, courtesy of the esteemed Dr. Woodrow Wilson Moreland. Tasked with organizing Moreland's papers for publication, Alex anticipates a relaxing getaway with Robin Castagna. However, the atmosphere quickly darkens with secretive guests, unsettling nocturnal occurrences, and the enigmatic Moreland himself. The cases shared by Moreland—a patient driven to madness, a man lost to radiation poisoning decades ago, and a young woman brutally murdered on the beach—appear unrelated, yet Alex senses a deeper connection. As he investigates, with assistance from LAPD detective Milo Sturgis, he suspects that the truth lies hidden within Moreland's expansive estate. The shocking revelation he uncovers will come too late to prevent the escalating violence threatening both the guilty and innocent on the island. Through brilliant characterizations and a gripping pace, the author masterfully explores real-life horrors and deep-seated fears, creating a suspenseful narrative that captivates from beginning to end.
