Newly married and with his career as a private investigator behind him, Tres Navarre is expecting a peaceful honeymoon on Rebel Island. Off the coast, however, a storm hovers, and death and destruction soon find Tres once more.
A corpse found in the hotel resurrects traumatic childhood memories, and as the rain and wind gather power, the venue's remaining guests begin to be brutally murdered. Past terrors manifest themselves again, and Tres must decide between vengeance and justice.
Rebel Island is the stormy finale to the multiple-award-winning Tres Navarre suspense series by the internationally bestselling author of the Percy Jackson novels.
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
At the start of Edgar-winner Riordan's entertaining seventh crime novel to feature San Antonio, Tex., PI Tres Navarre (after 2005's Mission Road), Tres has just retired and married his longtime girlfriend Maia, who's eight-plus months pregnant. Tres's wheelchair-bound older brother, Garret, has persuaded the couple to honeymoon together with him and other old friends on the Texas Gulf's Rebel Island, where Tres and Garret spent vacations with their dysfunctional parents. When U.S. Marshal Jesse Longoria, a character from earlier books, is killed, Tres gets a chance to work out some unfinished business. As the bodies begin piling up, a lethal hurricane approaches. Fans will enjoy the update on Tres's life as he prowls through secret passageways hunting down the ghostlike killer while the roof of the island's old hotel begins to shred and the seas begin to rise. (Sept.)
