About the Book: Island Endgame
An isolated island. A grieving nurse, struggling to heal. Three desperate fugitives taking hostages. Can she outwith them and survive?
Guilt-ridden over the drowning death of her nine-year-old nephew, Kenzie Adams flees her nursing job at a major city hospital to work at a primitive but picturesque island summer camp. Hopefully a few low-stress months away from the city will help steer her life back on course. But before the campers arrive, Kenzie's second chance takes a turn to real-life terror. Three determined fugitives invade the island to search for a rumored treasure, and they threaten to K*ll Kenzie and the staff, including the caretaker's young son.
Their captors have a plan...until Kenzie seizes an opportunity to escape. But with no weapons, no communications with the outside world, and mounting danger from increasingly desperate men, she'll have to tap intpo unexpected strengths to save everyone before the captors deliver on their ultimatum -- find treasure of die. Kenzie must learn to trust herself again, or she'll relive her greatest nightmare, failing to save yet another child.
Island Endgame is a page-turning suspense with plenty of heart, perfect for fans of Kristin Hannah's The Great Alone and Peter Heller's The Guide.
