Keith Sinteris and his wife Malena (the brains of the operation) hire three skilled accomplices (Stony- Bartolo and Duane) to kidnap three hostages from a monastery along with the holy tabernacle containing consecrated "bread". For all her planning- Malena had no way of knowing just how awry the hostage taking could go.

Detective Jessica Harding and FBI Agent Rob Dexter are on the case. Strong willed and quick witted- Jessica puts the FBI agent in his place from the moment the two were introduced. Intrigued- Rob cannot get her out of his mind. With so few clues- the odds are stacked against the two "good guys"- yet they struggle on while the immense ransom demands continue to haunt the Catholic Church.

This is a well-told story line involving a mysterious home on an island that has a distinctive secret. The author uses scenes such as the fantastic cave hideout- the lung-busting chore of stashing loot and a magnificent storm to heighten interest.

There are several unique aspects to this suspense-filled novel over others in the adventure crime thriller genre. For one thing- the two women are the strongest characters - both leaders and quick thinkers- but on opposite sides. The Island off Stony Point certainly conveys the inherent goodness of people but also shows the great lengths that desperate and driven people will pursue. I also thought it was interesting that this is actually the second novel involving the leading hostage character- a Father Martin – who was in Regis’s first novel- The Oculi Incident.

Kudos to author Regis Schilken for this excellent novel!
