Publisher Description: "Island Justice" is a unique code of ethics that, at its best, preserves the values of community and, at its worst, condones a vigilante form of retribution. In times of sickness, the island people rush to their neighbors with casseroles and offers to baby-sit. But there are other troubles they take great care to ignore. Slashed tires, a black eye in church on Sunday morning, a brick through a window late at night---these signal times when islanders know enough to hold their tongues and look the other way.

Just as Maggie Hammond must resist fleeing from the love of a man who could show her true meaning of home, so the islanders are forced to examine the erosive undertow of secrecy, which threatens to destroy the island community they call home.
