Thriller
A happily married woman's perfect life shatters when
her husband turns up dead hundreds of miles away from
where he should have
been, and she suddenly discovers that there was a part
of him she knew nothing about. Alice Dupont’s perfect marriage was a perfect lie. When
her husband, Chris, dies in a car accident, far from
where he should have
been, Alice’s life falls apart. After the police close
the case, she is left with more questions than answers.
While learning to cope
with her loss and her new identity as a single mother of
two, Alice becomes obsessed with unraveling the mystery
surrounding her
husband’s death and decides to start her own
investigation. Retracing her husband's last known
whereabouts, she soon discovers clues
that lead her to a small island near Nantucket. As she insinuates herself into the lives of the island’s
inhabitants in an effort to discover what they knew
about her husband, Alice
finds herself increasingly involved in their private
lives and comes to a disturbing realization: she has
been transformed into a
person she no longer recognizes. In seeking an answer to what her husband was doing
before he died, Alice discovers not only a side of him
she never knew, but sides of
her own character she has never explored. Part mystery,
part moving family drama, part psychological page-
turner, Alice’s Island is a
novel whose vivid characters hold the reader rapt right
up until the final page.
