Mystic Island, Aug 19 2005
By J. DiBello "Beach House Bookie" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Mystic Island (Paperback)
The best books I have read are the ones where I forgot there are words. Jan Evan Whitford's, Mystic Island, put me in that place where the "words" on the pages disappeared. Instead I engaged in what I saw, heard, touched, and felt. I not only "watched" the action, drama, and comedic scenes of this down and dirty, yet heartfelt mystery, I became a part of its life. Mystic Island is the kind of "Who done it?" that makes noise, because you get to interact with the characters, - and there are certainly some shady, as well as laugh out loud (LOL) characters on "Mystic Island". The author's knack for this type of storytelling is salient, - I will be looking for more by Mr. Whitford.

Fiction book based in RI, Jan 3 2009
By AllieB1776 - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Mystic Island (Paperback)
"Mystic Island" is a book filled with comedy, mystery, sex and violence. It is a little hard to follow, and there are many story lines but you still get pulled into the story. His style of writing is also a little primitive. It is based in "Mystic Island" which I'm pretty sure is code for Jamestown, RI. Finding a fiction book based on summers in Southern RI has long been a dream of mine, which came true when I received this book as a gift. It is mostly written through Environmental Police Officer (EPO) Nikki O'Connors view, and her dealings with the campers and fishermen of Seabreeze campground.If you are into World War II history, especially in Narragansett Bay, I recommend this book. It even mentions Walter Schroeder's book in the middle of the story. HOWEVER, do not intend to read this book as if everything is true.. because it is a FICTION novel. I'm interested to see what else Mr. Whitford comes up with.
