Daniel Graham MacCormick — Mac for short — seems to have a pretty good life. At age thirty-five he’s living in Key West, owner of a forty-two-foot charter fishing boat, . Mac served five years in the Army as an infantry officer with two tours in Afghanistan. He returned with the Silver Star, two Purple Hearts, scars that don’t tan, and a boat with a big bank loan. Truth be told, Mac’s finances are more than a little shaky.

One day, Mac is sitting in the famous Green Parrot Bar in Key West, contemplating his life, and waiting for Carlos, a hotshot Miami lawyer heavily involved with anti-Castro groups. Carlos wants to hire Mac and for a ten-day fishing tournament to Cuba at the standard rate, but Mac suspects there is more to this and turns it down. The price then goes up to two million dollars, and Mac agrees to hear the deal, and meet Carlos’s clients — a beautiful Cuban-American woman named Sara Ortega, and a mysterious older Cuban exile, Eduardo Valazquez.

What Mac learns is that there is sixty million American dollars hidden in Cuba by Sara’s grandfather when he fled Castro’s revolution. With the “Cuban Thaw” underway between Havana and Washington, Carlos, Eduardo, and Sara know it’s only a matter of time before someone finds the stash — by accident or on purpose. And Mac knows if he accepts this job, he’ll walk away rich... or not at all.

Brilliantly written, with his signature humor, fascinating authenticity from his research trip to Cuba, and heart-pounding pace, Nelson DeMille is a true master of the genre.

Herido en acto de servicio, John Corey, detective de la brigada de homicidios de la policía de Nueva York, se recupera en un pueblecito de Long Island habitado por agricultores, pescadores y, por lo menos, un asesino. Tom y Judy Gordon, una joven y atractiva pareja de biólogos conocidos de Corey, han sido hallados en su jardín con sendas balas en la cabeza. Los primeros indicios apuntan a un robo frustrado, pero el rumor de guerra bacteriológica que salpica al centro de investigación de patologías animales de Long Island hace que circule el rumor de que los Gordon se habían apoderado de una sustancia muy peligrosa. El asesinato del matrimonio se convierte en un crimen de repercusiones mundiales y Corey acaba tomando cartas en el asunto. Sus investigaciones nos conducen por tradiciones, leyendas y secretos ancestrales del norte de Long Island, a la vez que el astuto detective se ve envuelto en una trama mucho más compleja de lo que esperaba. Isla Misterio, con un ritmo trepidante y salpicada de ingeniosas pinceladas cómicas, constituye sin duda la novela más lograda de Nelson DeMille.

NYPD homicide detective John Corey has moved to Long Island, restlessly recuperating from wounds received in the line of duty when he's hired to consult on the murder of Tom and Judy Gordon, biologists who worked on Plum Island, the site of animal disease research for the Department of Agriculture. Were the Gordons murdered because they'd stolen some valuable new vaccine, or even a dreaded virus? They'd obviously outspent their income. Had they been running drugs? Corey doesn't think so, although an ice-chest missing from their home points to something forbidden. He teams up with Beth Penrose, detective, working her first homicide and their visit to Plum Island reveals only that the FBI & CIA have sanitised the place. Then Corey falls in with Emma Whitehouse, an expert on Captain Kidd's lost treasure which is thought to be buried nearby… PLUM ISLAND is a thrilling novel from an author of consummate page-turning skill. This is the title that knocked John Grisham off the top of the US bestseller lists and held the No.1 spot for five weeks.
