Produktbeschreibung
Nick Wolf is a public research specialist sent to scout potential drilling sites for NorthAm Oil Company. His latest assignment finds him on Hatteras Island, on North Carolina's Outer Banks. As soon as he arrives, Nick discovers that four families run everything and everyone is connected, even to him. Nick's grandfather was said to have died on Hatteras during World War II, though he was mysteriously claimed as a fallen soldier by both the American and German armies. While on the job, Nick becomes the victim of several suspicious accidents and begins receiving cryptic notes that lead him to surprising revelations about his grandfather and the island where he's laid to rest. In this thriller, contemporary politics of the Outer Banks, including the question of offshore drilling, interweave with the region's World War II history. The Dark of the Island is what oldtimers on Hatteras called a moonless night with no stars. It's Nick Wolf's destiny to discover what is hiding in that dark.
