The Writer

Adele Plank, a student journalist, wins a rare chance to interview Decklan Stone, a once-celebrated novelist who has pulled away from public life since his young wife died more than two decades ago. She travels to his secluded home on a private island in the San Juan Islands, expecting a simple conversation. Instead she is drawn into a dangerous investigation. As she digs into the past, she finds that the truth behind that loss is far more shocking and perilous than anything she imagined, and she must work out whom she can trust before it's too late.
