Camino Island

A Heist. A Mystery. A Book Lover’s Paradise with a Dark Side.

Camino Island by international bestselling author John Grisham is a smart, suspenseful literary thriller that blends rare books, stolen manuscripts, and shady dealings on a picturesque Florida island. Published in 2018 by Hodder in paperback, this gripping novel is a departure from Grisham’s courtroom dramas — but no less compelling.

Stolen Treasures and Dangerous Secrets

When priceless F. Scott Fitzgerald manuscripts are stolen from a high-security vault at Princeton University, the trail leads to Camino Island, where charming bookseller Bruce Cable runs a successful — and possibly illicit — rare book business. Enter Mercer Mann, a struggling young writer lured by a mysterious employer to infiltrate Cable’s world and uncover the truth. But Mercer soon discovers that the island’s literary charm hides more secrets than she ever expected — and getting too close could be deadly.

A Thrilling Literary Caper

Camino Island is an irresistible mix of suspense, intrigue, and bookish delight. With richly drawn characters, clever twists, and Grisham’s trademark storytelling prowess, it’s a fast-paced read perfect for fans of thrillers with a literary twist. A must-read for Grisham followers and anyone who believes that beneath every great story, there might be a crime waiting to be solved.
