Salt Island: A Thriller by Lisa Towles is the second
book in the E&A Investigations Series, an intoxicating read that is sure to
keep any reader turning the pages. Marissa “Mari” Ellwyn has been through a lot
in the past few months, including a kidnapping eight months ago. She has
learned a lot from her father, the spy, and the man who has technically
disappeared for the past two years. It is clearly evident that Richard Ellwyn
doesn't want to be found, neither by his daughter nor anyone else. But Marissa
is determined to uncover the truth about his whereabouts, which is why she
plans her own getaway to Tortola. What she never expected is a dead body
floating in the water.
Darcy,
CEO and President of a promising company, is being blackmailed by a witness who
will stop at nothing to expose him for fraud. Are the blackmail and the deaths
of two farmers part of a bigger, more sinister agenda? Marissa and her new
partner, Derek Abernathy, are determined to uncover the truth, but the path
they walk gets more slippery with every step they make.

Towles delivers a hugely entertaining read in Salt Island: A Thriller,
writing characters that are intriguing and complex and a conflict that moves
the story in directions that are unexpected. The writing is atmospheric and the
well-crafted first-person narrative voice translates the emotions and inner
world of the heroine vividly. This author has the gift of writing relationships
that feel real and at the center of the story is the complicated relationship
between father and daughter, a relationship that introduces the premise of this
engrossing tale. This entry is a winner, a thrilling read for fans of crime
thrillers and well-written sleuth; the multiple plot lines reinforce the
suspense and keep readers turning the pages.
