The new graphic novel from the team behind bestseller Man-Eaters is a
terrifying, sexy, and thought-provoking espionage thriller-that also
happens to be laugh-out-loud funny! The world's best spies keep watch
over the Bermuda Triangle from a mysterious island outpost teeming
with supernatural intrigue, monsters, and evil villains set on global
domination. The best of these spies is named Nora Freud (no relation).
She knows eighty-seven ways to kill someone with a cocktail toothpick,
and she's used thirty-two of them. Lately though, Nora has started to
feel like she's going through the motions. Close the temporal portal.
Assassinate the genocidal maniac. Have sex with the MI-6 agent. Plus,
the island has gotten kind of touristy. She agrees to one last
mission. But when Nora's troubled marine cryptozoologist sister shows
up unexpectedly, warning of mermaid attacks, Nora realizes that
boredom is not her biggest problem. Laugh-out-loud funny, terrifying,
sexy, and philosophical, Spy Island is the perfect comic book for
anyone who enjoys travel, chardonnay, krakens, Atlantis, volcanos,
scuba diving, mermaids, ghost pirates, tropical espionage, secret
agents, and/or island-casual Sean Connery.* *Sponsored by the Bermuda
Triangle Chamber of Commerce. Spy Island was created by NYT
best-selling author, Chelsea Cain, writer of the Archie
Sheridan/Gretchen Lowell thrillers, as well as One Kick, which was
adapted for television starring Chris Noth. Her previous comics
include Man-Eaters (Image) and Mockingbird (Marvel), both nominated
for Eisner Awards. Spy Island is co-created by Lia
Miternique--cocreator of Man-Eaters and illustrator of The Hippie
Handbook (Chronicle), Does This Cape Make Me Look Fat (Chronicle), and
Confessions of a Teen Sleuth (Bloomsbury). Spy Island also reunites
the entire Man-Eaters creative team, including Elise McCall, Rachelle
Rosenberg, Joe Caramagna, Eliza Fantastic Mohan, Stella Greenvoss,
Emily Powell, and Liv Osborn.
