A ferry ride and an unsettling offer launches us into the new novel, "Whidbey"
It's not a spoiler to say someone gets murdered in T Kira Madden's new book, "Whidbey." But what happens next? You'll have to read and find out.
Whidbey is expansive, detailed and visceral. It makes readers wonder about questions of justice, forgiveness, belief and unconditional love.
We talk with Madden about how the island inspired her new literary thriller.
