About this listen
Two unscrupulous antiquity dealers, Hugh Underdonk and Alfred Bacon, hope to get their hands on the Dare Diary, a long lost journal written by Eleanor Dare, one of the original members of Roanoke Island's Lost Colony. Detective Weston Wolf is drawn into this web of deception and murder by a beautiful woman who claims to be a descendant of Eleanor. As the bodies pile up, Wolf must untangle this web to save his own neck.
In the spirit of Dashiell Hammett and Raymond Chandler, Joe C. Ellis has weaved together a fast-paced noir detective novel set on the Outer Banks with a menagerie of unusual characters. This novel launches book one off the Weston Wolf, Outer Banks Detective Series.

Building on an already intriguing mystery
Roanoke Island Murders by Joe C. Ellis has written a story that builds on the already puzzling and bewildering mystery that is Roanoke. I requested a review code because I love real-life mysteries and wanted to see how a docu-fiction mystery Noir novel could take this setting and elevate it to the next level of which Joe Ellis did!
It is cleverly composed in that a good portion is from a lost journal from one of the original survivors of the late Roanoke 1500s. The story will continually catch you off guard and the characters are intriguing so the story does not become stale.
It is narrated well and you should delve into this and get lost as the original lost people did, and the characters do in this web of narrative turns!

Genuinely interesting and detailed
I love the unique concept and setting of this book. It’s an intriguing, dramatic, and mysterious read that many people can get into! I love the noir theme and the investigation in the storyline was not as it seems, lots of surprises and twists, it genuinely caught my attention.
Joe Ellis is an excellent writer with a natural talent for mystery.
The narration is great and the book length is nice and long. Very detailed, would recommend!
5/5
