The Dark Side of the Island (1973) by John Harris as Mark Hebden
Requirements: .ePUB reader, 0.5mb
Overview: The “lost” islands – so often dark and gloomy- off the northwest coast of Scotland provide the perfect setting for Mark Hebden’s new thriller. Nona, almost eighteen, attractive, and a touch lovesick, could sense that the island where she had spent so many peaceful summer vacations with her roguish grandfather was somehow different now. Sinister?
It wasn’t only the dead man brought ashore the day she arrived. There were many—too many?— foreign faces in the town. And a tension never felt before in this solitary community. And a strange fishing boat that didn’t seem to be used for fishing. And her grandfather was curiously evasive, disappearing for days on end. And it was then Nona discovered that she was being followed.
Mix these ingredients with a deceptively bland policeman, unexpected violence, the appealing folk of a rugged, unusual locale, modern criminal detection, and a ring of international smugglers, spice it with healthy romance, and the result is an exciting, swift yarn that will captivate readers who take delight in mystery, action, suspense, and faraway places.
