The Isle of Touperdu is a wonderful place, bursting with natural beauty, resources, and legend. Immigrating there gave New Orleans chef Amadeo Roselyn the opportunity to open his own restaurant, The Rose, now considered a crown jewel of the Island's newfound gentility. True, shortly after arrival he had to stand between the little Duday girl and the mayoress' brutal henchmen, but that was five years ago, Amadeo is now a respected and wealthy islander who surely has nothing to fear from Madame Reckoner's thugs. And though it means concealing the true extent of their supernatural talent, the raffish Dudays have also done well for themselves through fortunetelling, elixirs, necromancy, gambling, and black-market sales of the liquor vinjoie.
But what the island has given, the island can take away. Has Touperdu truly left its piratical past behind? Does being an islander mean denying the evidence of your own senses? In The Islanders, both the Roselyns and the Dudays must confront the limits of conscience, loyalty, and magic, on an island where a murdered family cat, a boy's dropped marble, a little girl's necklace, even a hastily scribbled recipe, can cause fate to pivot and lives to change.
