The foundation for the blockbuster motion picture directed by Martin Scorsese and starring Leonardo DiCaprio, Shutter Isle by NY Times bestselling author Dennis Lehane is a gripping and atmospheric psychological thriller where there is nothing quite what it seems. THE BRAND NEW York Times calls Shutter Isle, “Startlingly first.” The Washington Post raves, “Brilliantly conceived and performed.” A masterwork of suspense and surprise from the author of Mystic River and Gone, Baby, Gone, Shutter Island bears the reader right into a headache world of madness, mind control, and CIA Cold War paranoia and it is unlike anything you’ve ever browse before.
