Island Life by Michael W. Sherer
Jack Holm dreams of what life would be like without his wife, but when she doesn't come home one day his nightmare begins. CPS wants to take his kids, the cops want him in jail, and a killer is stalking his family. His only way out is to find out what happened to his wife. "Island Life" is the new suspense thriller from the author of the Emerson Ward mystery series. "Beautifully written and richly nuanced, Island Life transcends the usual suspense tale." -- Gayle Lynds, New York Times bestselling author of The Last Spymaster
"Island Life is a terrific novel... A truly different and fascinating story." -- Jeremiah Healy, author of Turnabout and The Only Good Lawyer
"In a shift from his Emerson Ward mysteries (Death is No Bargain, 2006, etc.), Sherer creates a suspenseful tale of a family stressed by the conflicts murder reveals." -- Kirkus Review
After stints as manual laborer, dishwasher, bartender, restaurant manager, commercial photographer, magazine editor and pr executive, Michael W. Sherer decided life should imitate art--he's now a freelance writer. He has five novels in the Emerson Ward series (An Option On Death, Little Use For Death, Death Came Dressed In White, A Forever Death, and Death Is No Bargain). Island Life, a stand-alone thriller about an ordinary suburban father's race to find out what happened to his missing wife before he loses his children, his freedom and possibly his life, comes out in March, 2008.
