The Pulitzer Prize-nominated writer serves up a complicated, compelling tale of a family that heads for an island off the coast of Italy hoping to make a fortune in jewels but instead becomes embroiled in a mystery surrounding the disappearance of a local girl. Reprint.
"TOURMALINE once again shows Joanna Scott to be a writer who takes different directions from book to book, a quest, like the one for tourmaline, that involves looking for something when you don't know what you're looking for, and separates the genuine artist from the fake."
