Honeybone

Warning: Contains references to a serial killer of young people. US Federal Marshal Dean Honeybone is accompanying extradited child killer Richard Stance to Australia when their plane crashes off the north-east coast of the island continent. The only survivors of the packed flight are Honeybone and nine-year old Kaia Pendleton, whom Dean rescued during the crash. As Dean and Kaia recuperate in a Queensland hospital, questions swirl about what caused the accident…and what happened to Stance’s body, the only one not recovered from the crash site. Unable to return to work due to his injuries and plagued by raging headaches and violent nightmares, Honeybone must rest. Convinced that Stance has survived and is out there somewhere, free to kill again, he’s reluctant to take the gift of a week-long dream vacation at Wilson Island, a remote, luxury island resort where only ten guests at a time are allowed to visit. Honeybone gives in however and falls hard and fast for Jean-Luc Sebastien, the French chef on the island…but discovers that death and danger are as close as the next barrier reef.
