Generations of infighting among loose-knit lobstering clans have left them openly hostile to outsiders. When a beautiful, bed-hopping stranger sails into the harbor, old resentments re-ignite and people begin to die—murders linked, through centuries of violence, to a diary whose secrets threaten to tear the island apart.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Darcy Scott","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47105683652848,"sku":"2940033276943","price":3.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/2940033276943_p0.jpg?v=1763658814","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/2940033276943","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
