Summary:
A mysterious beachcomber appears 1 day over the coastal bluffs near the little town of Carverville, a location whose best days are very long behind it. Who is he, and just why offers he came back after almost forty years? Carverville’s prodigal kid, James, serendipitously finds just work at a gentrified motel, but his homecoming soon requires a sinister change when he and an area teenager make a gruesome discovery over the seaside. It pushes him to reckon using the ghosts of his past-and the dangers of today’s. Rumours, distrust, and conspiracies spread among the townsfolk, all of them seemingly trapped within their claustrophobic and isolated world. But will there be something even more sinister at work here than the mere concern with outsiders? In The Gardener of Eden, David Downie weaves an complex and compelling narrative of redemption, revenge, justice, and love-and the price of secrecy-as a community grapples using its tortured former and frightening future.
