What Amazon Says:
On an island off the coast of Maine, a mna is found dead. There's no identification on the body. Only the dogged work of a pair of local newspaperment and a graduate student in forensics turns up any clues, and it's more than a year before the man is identified. And that's just the beginning of the mystery. Because the more they learn about the man and the baffling circumstances of his death, the less they understand. Was it an impossible crime? Or something stranger still?
This one was okay. I listened to it, which was probably a mistake. I didn't like the narrator - his voice was a bit distracting, so this one would probably have been better as a straight read. It is a short book/audio. Feels more like a short story, and plays out like one as well. Ending wasn't great - it just kind of ends. I liked the characters, but I was left wanting more.
