The island exists...but the mystery has just begun! The 2017 Eisner-nominated series returns! Mikura Amelia, following her clues and research, sets her floatplane down in the Pacific, waiting for the drifting passage of Electric Island. No sooner does it appear than her GPS goes out...so where is she, and the island, headed? The sun-baked maze of streets and buildings that make up Electric Island is curious and charming...which is more than can be said for its sullen inhabitants who will barely communicate with Mikura. Did they fall prey to the same enigma that drew Mikura here...and will she recognize the people from her past when she finds them...?

Book Description
Come back to a small town on the Oregon coast, in book 4 of the beloved Thunder Point series only from New York Times bestselling author Robyn Carr. With its breathtaking vistas and down-to-earth people, Thunder Point is the perfect place for FBI agent Laine Carrington to recuperate from a gunshot wound and contemplate her future. The locals embraced Laine as one of their own after she risked her life to save a young girl from a dangerous cult. Knowing her wounds go beyond the physical, Laine hopes she’ll fit in for a while and find her true self in a town that feels safe. She may even learn to open her heart to others, something an undercover agent has little time to indulge. Eric Gentry is also new to Thunder Point. Although he’s a man with a dark past, he’s determined to put down roots and get to know the daughter he only recently discovered. When Laine and Eric meet, their attraction is obvious to everyone. But while the law enforcement agent and the reformed criminal want to make things work, their differences may run too deep…unless they take a chance on each other and find that deep and mysterious bond that belongs to those who choose love over fear.
