Matt Royal is tired of being a hotshot city lawyer, so he
quits his job and moves to the beach. He much prefers the
easy life in Longboat Key, Florida, where he can spend his
days visiting friends, enjoying the Florida sunshine and
occasionally getting caught up in exciting escapades or a
bit of trouble. And trouble is never far away from Matt.
When his ex-wife, a woman he's never stopped loving, seeks
him out to help find her missing stepdaughter, Matt can't
say no to her. He promises to ask around. Disturbing to
Matt is that the people he asks are dead within hours of
his visit.
Matt enlists the help of his two best friends, along with
many connections he has in Florida, to figure out exactly
what's happened to this young woman. After several attempts
on his life, Matt steps up his search and follows leads to
an island off the coast named Blood Island. The events
planned on Blood Island will have devastating consequences
for the world. Matt cannot allow this to happen. He has to
figure out how the missing girl plays into all the plans,
find a way to save her and stop the evil plot.
H. Terrell Griffin writes with a great sense of
humor and an apparent knowledge of the law. The dialogue is
crisp and entertaining. Serious events sprinkled with a
positive outlook on life makes Griffin's character, Matt
Royal, and BLOOD ISLAND one entertaining read. I always
enjoy the opportunity to read and review a book I wouldn't
normally have personally chosen. I especially like it when
I enjoy the story as much as I enjoyed BLOOD ISLAND. The
next time you're running your fingertips along the
bookstore shelves, check this one out.
Matt Royal never has to look far for excitement.
Excitement - and sometimes trouble - has a way of finding
him first. But for this fun-loving lawyer turned beach
bum, things are about to get serious. Dead serious. When
his ex-wife asks for help in tracking down her
stepdaughter, last seen in Matt's hometown of Longboat
Key, Matt agrees to do a little searching. But what looks
like the case of one missing girl turns out to be
something much bigger - and much more dangerous.
Enlisting
the aid of his buddies Jock Algren and Logan Hamilton,
Matt launches a full-speed-ahead search that leads from
Longboat Key to Key West to an ominous strip of land
called Blood Island. But this is no island paradise. Blood
Island is home base to a cult of religious zealots. And
they're making devastating plans that could change the
world forever. Bullets fly, and as the clock ticks down,
it will be up to Matt to make sure that what happens on
Blood Island stays on Blood Island.
