The Last Visitor

Five hundred kilometres out in the Atlantic Ocean lies an island. The last in its tiny archipelago, Navigaceo contains only empty caves, an abandoned lighthouse and a colony of seals. The last time anyone set foot there was 1971.Until now. A team of research scientists, accompanied by Quin Macfarlane, a documentary filmmaker, are the first in recent memory to explore the island's tangled forests.But on arrival, Quin makes a devastating discovery; while filming, she spots a body in a cove at the foot of the treacherous cliffs. And although nobody has been on Navigaceo for half a century, the corpse has all the markers of a recent death . . . Each member of the research team has secrets. More than one of them could be a murderer. It's five days until they will be returned to the mainland. And Quin knows if she's not careful, there could be another body on the shore by morning.Praise for Martin Griffin'If there is a finer crime debut this year, it will be a surprise . . .
