The island of forgetting / by Sealy, Jasmine,author.;
"Barbados, 1962. Lost soul Iapetus roams the island, scared and alone, driven mad after witnessing his father's death at the hands of his mother and older brother, Cronus. Just before Iapetus is lost forever, he has a son, but the baby is not enough to save him from himself--or his family's secrets. Seventeen years later, Iapetus's son, the stoic Atlas, lives in a loveless house under the care of his uncle Cronus, and in the shadow of his charismatic cousin Z. Knowing little about the tragic circumstances of his father's life, Atlas must choose between his desire to flee the island and his loyalty to the uncle who raised him. Years later, Atlas's own daughter, Calypso, is a beautiful and wilful teenager who is desperate to avoid being trapped in a life of drudgery at her uncle Z's hotel. When she falls deeply and dangerously in love with a visiting real estate developer, she finds herself entangled with her uncle's shady dealings, a pawn in the games of the powerful men around her. In 2018, Calypso's son, Nautilus, is on a path of self-destruction as he grapples with his fatherlessness, his mixed-race identity, and his complicated feelings of attraction towards his best friend, Daniel. Then one night, Nautilus makes an impulsive decision and finds himself exiled to Canada. An intimate family saga loosely inspired by Greek mythology, this is a novel about the echoes of deep--and sometimes tragic--love and the way a family's past can haunt its future."--Provided by publisher.

An island of suspects / by Bannalec, Jean-Luc,1966-author.; Romanelli, Jamie Searle,translator.; translation of:Bannalec, Jean-Luc,1966-Bretonische Idylle.English.;
"International bestselling author Jean-Luc Bannalec's Commissaire Georges Dupin and his team head to Breton paradise in An Island of Suspects. An August heat wave has all of Brittany in its grasp, and the only chance to cool down for Commissaire Georges Dupin is his daily swim in the ocean. Until one morning his routine is interrupted because a body has been found in the harbor with clear signs of foul play. Patric Provost was from one of the long-established families on the island of Belle-Île, Breton's biggest and most famous island. Provost owned and operated a company dealing in an island delicacy: the famous Belle-Île-sheep. As Bretons say, the sheep season themselves while they're eating, grazing on salty, iodine-rich meadows, full of wild herbs, directly by the ocean. In Dupin's culinary ranking, this lamb comes right behind entrecôte. And that's saying something. Dupin has barely stepped foot on the utopia-like island before it comes to light that Provost was not well liked. And someone was blackmailing him for one million euros, the deadline for payment the night before Provost's body was caught on the buoy. Everyone on the island has a motive. Any one of them could be the killer"--

"For decades, the Campbell women have reunited at the family's rambling seaside cottage known as Beech House to celebrate life's many occasions. But this year, they will be called back to Martha's Vineyard for a celebration of a different sort: their beloved matriarch Cora is getting remarried. And all the town gossips are calling him the one who got away, years ago ... For renowned chef Mickey Campbell, this wedding isn't just a welcome excuse to return to the place she first learned to cook at her grandmother's side. It's also a chance to regroup while she figures out a way to tell her smoldering head chef boyfriend that she's mismanaged their restaurant into the red. Mickey's mother, Hedy, is still mourning the passing of her adored father three years earlier, and she isn't sure she's ready to welcome a new man into the fold--and she's not certain her own thorny relationship with her mother will weather the storm of her upcoming marriage. But everyone knows a woman's heart holds more than meets the eye. For Cora, drawing her daughter and granddaughter back to Beech House isn't just about a ceremony, but a chance to reveal a history she has kept close to her heart for decades. As the days leading up to the wedding unfold, secrets of Cora's past come to light-- a secret that will cause three generations of Campbell women to question marriage, motherhood, and ultimately learn to savor the delicious joy of following your own heart."--
