Following John Grisham's international bestsellers, Camino Island and Camino Winds, Camino Ghosts is the story of an island off the Florida coast with a haunted, violent history and an uncertain future.Dark Isle is said to be cursed: drownings, disappearances and hauntings have been the fate of intruders.
