Winston did not hear it so much as feel it as it passed over their house and into the trees across the waterway.

A sheriff struggling for re-election and haunted by his past. A mystery plane which crash-lands on his island. A daughter returning home to hide from her troubles. An FBI pilot sent in to help.

As the mystery of the abandoned plane and the dead body stokes long-simmering racial tensions, a moment of reckoning draws ever closer for the town of Oak Island. When Ghosts Come Home is the thrilling new page-turner from prize-winning novelist Wiley Cash.

'A searing, thunderous, heartbreaking thriller. Wiley Cash has talent to burn.' - Chris Whitaker
