The Bone Cay by Eliza Nellums

THE BONE CAY by Eliza Nellums is a mystery story that begins just as a major hurricane is bearing down on the Florida Keys. First question: how can someone be so obsessed with her job and the life of a long dead poet to risk her own life and stay behind in the storm? That’s Magda Trudell, caretaker of the estate where poet Isobel Reyes grew up in isolation and committed suicide. Next question: why is handyman Hank McGrath still on the island and can he and Magda get help for his pregnant daughter, Emily, during the worsening storm? Another question: Who is the skeleton that Magda finds buried in a trunk? Oh, and even more questions: Who broke the radio transmitter? As the storm stalls and causes major damage and flooding, how will they manage to get food and water? Will any of them survive? This soon-to-be-released fast-paced thriller is full of diverting action and creepy happenings (on several levels). Enjoy!
