House Arrest Book

Maggie Conover, a writer for a travel magazine, returns to a small Caribbean island to work on an update to a guidebook entry she wrote. The problem is that during her last trip she befriended Isabel Calderon, the daughter of the island's dictator, and helped her flee the island. The dictator was none too happy about that development and showed his displeasure by promptly detaining Maggie in the kind of hotel she's likely not to recommend to her readership. Real-life travel writer Mary Morris imaginatively captures the atmosphere of paradise ruined by totalitarianism as well as Maggie's difficult-to-define relationship with Isabel.Read More
