Publisher's summary

Devil's Island. An abandoned island in the Caribbean Sea with a dark and bloody past. An island with a terrible secret.

Nick Gorman, billionaire movie producer, assembles a team of ghost hunters and scientists to investigate the Thornhill Manor on Devil's Island - the most haunted place in the world that no one's ever heard of. He's there to find proof of ghosts, evidence of an afterlife...but he's also there to uncover the secret that is hidden on the island...to possess it.

The ghost hunting team is led by Shane Edwards who lost his TV show in a scandal and now is a disgrace in the ghost-hunting world; this is his chance to redeem himself and revive his career. But as soon as he steps foot on Devil's Island, he realizes that the fears from the Cranston House, a house he and his friend entered on a dare when they were 12 years old, fears he thought he had overcome, are all coming back. And everyone on the team is facing their darkest fears, the island somehow bringing them to life.

As Nick gets closer to unearthing the secret on the island, Shane begins to wonder if any of them will survive their two night stay on Devil's Island.

Narrator was excellent

The narrator was a perfect match for the book! Voices were on point for each character. Excellent listen for sure!

I Hope This Book Is Made into a Movie

I enjoyed listening to this book immensely. The characters were well developed and the story held my interest throughout its entirety. The narrator was excellent. I will be looking for more books by this author, I also hope to find more audible books by the narrator.

Highly recommend.

Fast paced and well done. I sensed I was in good hands from the first chapter. Great story with some twists and an interesting ending.

I almost never write reviews but felt this book deserved it.

interesting

I was kept intrigued and interested. The book was well rounded and I lived the ending.

Finally! A truly SCARY story with great characters

I love a book that makes me afraid of the dark- a truly terrifying - not gory - just scary story. THIS IS IT!
The author starts out with a mini prologue that pulled me in, right off the bat and gave me a taste for the terror. Then he took a step back and took time to develop the characters. BRILLIANT and so effective! I was hooked from the beginning.

The narrator did a great job of changing voices for both men and women. He took his time when pauses were needed for effect. Honestly, my stomach did flips sometimes when he was building suspense.

I can't recommend it enough. If you love to be scared - this book is it!

Hoping the author writes a sequel!

Wow! Great listen!

I agree that this should be made into a movie. I thought it was fantastic, although it wrapped up a bit too quickly at the end. Scary, interesting and unique.

Now this is how you write a Book

👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾 THANK YOU for writing an amazingly entertaining novel. Everyone today calls themselves an author but you Sir, ARE ONE. This book is so well written, worth every second to listen to and enjoy.

Loved it!

I absolutely loved this book! Kind of a slow start but in retrospect it’s important to get to know the characters for the story later on in the book. 5 stars all the way!

Pretty good book

This book really scared me at times. The plot was fast moving. I had to stop reading it at night it scared me so much.

Enjoyable ghost story with a twist

The premise if this book is a team that has been assembled for a documentary is taken to a abandoned mansion on a deserted island to prove the existence of ghosts and that the place is haunted. The team has a token skeptic, psychic, camera man, and others. Were they really brought to prove the existence of ghosts? Or are they looking for something else for the rich producer who is dying from cancer. Listened to audible version and enjoyed.
