Diana O'Toole is about to get engaged on a trip to Galapagos Island but a virus hits New York on the eve of their departure. Finn tells her she should still go to the island as he has to stay at the hospital to handle all the sick. When Diana arrives on the island the whole island is now under quarantine and she is stranded until the borders reopen. Completely isolated Diana must venture beyond her comfort zone. Will this cause Diana to examine her relationships, her choices and herself? Will Diana evolve into someone completely different? This is a great story with a completely surprising twist that I did not see coming. I love the characters and the plot was unexpected. I will definitely seek to read more Jodi Picoult as she knows how to tell a story.
