Recluse Island by mseverett88

The island of Pigscula Keys, some would say, was an accidental discovery. Others would call it the beginning of centuries of despair and forced imprisonment. Whether accidental or not it would become a place no one could ever leave. The Rafanoli's had made sure of that. Forcing its people to live either trapped underground in the Clinkirk Compound or above in the small town of Stormy Shore. Now many, many years later Mia Niles, adopted daughter of two previous occupants of the island, returns for answers and closure. In her quest for truth she'll meet old friends, discover long lost artifacts, learn about a mysterious disease and what life had really been like under the reign of Rafanoli. Along with the help of her outspoken but somewhat dimwitted cousin Sabrina, her quirky friend Alan who she may or may not be in love with and the ever puzzling but captivating Glenn Sanbuster who without the island never would have been freed. Mia discovers one very important thing. There is always a way to survive so long as you do not give up hope.
