Hammerhead shark fin, circling us in cove, Spring Break, St. John Island, US Virgin Islands, 1975
I had the immense pleasure of interviewing author Faith Mortimer back in July – you’ll find our interview here. A Very Distant Affair, although I really enjoyed it, proved not to tick all my boxes, and I’ve been looking forward to reading a psychological thriller instead. My chance has now come, and you can read my review on 16th January. But, until then, I’m delighted to help Brook Cottage Books reveal the cover. Paradise Prison by Faith Mortimer – number 4 in the Dark Minds series – is published by Topsails Charter on 7th January 2017.
Following an almighty row, Gillian stands up to her abusive boyfriend. The consequences are horrendous and far-reaching.
Terrified, she flees her home, seeking anonymity abroad while coming to terms with the outcome of her actions.
In Portugal, Gillian meets Harry, a yachtsman. Needing crew for his Atlantic Ocean-crossing she applies for the job. Half-way into the journey, after confessing to her crime, Harry offers her refuge on an uninhabited island in the Caribbean which he says he owns.
Confused and depressed, Gillian imagines this is the answer to her problems. She needs time to lie low and consider her options; confront the authorities or live in obscurity? Harry is offering the perfect hiding place…or is he?
When things start going horribly wrong, she asks herself if she is alone on the island. But maybe the biggest question of all is why she gets the gut feeling Harry wants to keep her there at all costs? What happens when she says … no.
Looks good, doesn’t it? Pre-order this one today through Amazon in the UK or US.
