Description

A prodigal’s homecoming is interrupted by a murder and the mass drownings of watermen in the graveyard of the Atlantic. After fifteen years working on the mainland, Kurt Salter returns to his boyhood home on Croatan Island on the Outer Banks of North Carolina. The bustling village of his youth, fueled by a menhaden reduction factory, has faded into an economic torpor after the closing of the plant. All Salter wants is to find some peace of mind and a place to pursue his photography. But the barrier islands have their own capricious history that is heedless of the aspirations of its residents. It will require the efforts of the whole village, including Backtown, to confront the tragedy of 1968 and bring the island back to life. “Steeped in the history and lore of the [barrier islands of North Carolina], Tempest on the Outer Banks is a compelling read which leads to intrigue, murder, romance, and [a hidden African American village]. A marvelous debut novel which will enrich your own visits to the OB!” —Lawrence Bechtel, author of The Partial Sun and That Dazzling Sun
