Plum Island by Nelson DeMille


This book may be thick but well worth picking up and holding in your hands to read. In fact, put all your "to do  list" aside for the weekend and just find a cozy place to sit and read this engrossing novel where John Corey convalesces in his Uncle's beach house after getting shot in the previous episode. He thinks all he needs to do is restore his health while having some beer on the deck watching time go by and the sun setting.

But Plum Island across the waters calls him or rather someone does who gets him to 'consult' on the confounding case of a double homicide. What's the motive? Why were they murdered? Will the U.S., as Corey knows it, become infected with a deadly virus? How does Captain Kidd's lost treasure fit in?

Those are the questions and you'll eventually find the answers in this story that keeps you turning the pages.

Mr. DeMille has a sense of humour that he liberally sprinkles on the pages. I think you'll like it.
