Summary
Running from a proposal of marriage from Sheriff Paul Davidson, Anna Pigeon takes a post as a temporary supervisory ranger on remote Garden Key in Dry Tortugas National Park, a small grouping of tiny islands in a natural harbor seventy miles off Key West. This island paradise has secrets it would keep; not just in the present, but in shadows from its gritty past, when it served as a prison for the Lincoln conspirators during and after the Civil War. Here, on this last lick of the United States, in a giant crumbling fortress, Anna has little company except for the occasional sunburned tourist or unruly shrimper. When her sister, Molly, sends her a packet of letters from a great-great-aunt who lived at the fort with her husband, a career soldier, Anna's fantasy life is filled with visions of this long-ago time. When a mysterious boat explosion-and the discovery of unidentifiable body parts-keeps her anchored to the present, Anna finds crimes of past and present closing in on her. A tangled web that was woven before she arrived begins to threaten her sanity and her life. Cut off from the mainland by miles of water, poor phone service, and sketchy radio contact, and aided by one law-enforcement ranger, Anna must find answers or weather a storm to rival the hurricanes for which the islands are famous.

I absolutely loved the flashes back in time in this book! Nevada Barr does amazing as mixing the past and the present into a wonderfully written story. Has just enough of a creep factor to make you think but not enough to scare you off.

I enjoyed the ‚flashbacks‘ in this story. So I not only got a feeling for the life of a ranger on an island, but also the feeling of life after the assassination of President Lincoln. A good listen!

I love the characters. We can all do things we would not consider doing until the situation is upon us. The love of another can send us down a path we would not take otherwise. I have not read Navada Barr in a while. I am glad I have come back to her books.
