A Place For Sinners by Aaron Dries

A Place For Sinners by Aaron Dries

Sometimes, survival is a sin.

Ko Mai Phaaw, a remote island off the coast of Thailand, awaits its visitors. They will cross the sea at dawn. They always do. All creatures seek retreat in the end.

On the rickety boat is Amity Collins and her brother, Caleb. They have waited years to leave behind their claustrophobic Australian town, an overbearing mother, and their shared traumatic past. For them, this is the long overdue trip of a lifetime.

Also aboard is Robert, a burned-out American businessman in the throes of a midlife crisis. Only he's not alone. Bedbugs and regrets he can't shake have hitched a ride, too.

Tobias, the German backpacker, is in wanderlust. And denial.

Finally, there is Susan Sycamore, a woman with a horrific secret. She has journeyed from country to country, leaving a trail of carnage in her wake.

All of these lives are about to converge on a single strip of sugar white sand. Discover paradise, the advertisement read. Come and feed the monkeys It sounded like such a good idea at the time.

But on this beach, blood will be shed, and no one will ever be the same.

An uncompromising novel of surreal terror from the author of HOUSE OF SIGHS and THE FALLEN BOYS.
