About the Book: 

“Mommy, I’m scared.” Marlena’s precious boy lies with his little arm thrown over her thigh. It’s pitch-black, and she can hear seagulls. She realises they must be near water, and a new panic rises in her.


At 2 a.m. one icy winter morning, in the smart suburbs of Jefferson County, local father Ben Parker reports his wife Marlena and their little boy missing.


Rushing to the impressive family home, Detective Megan Carpenter finds the halls adorned with pictures of the beautiful, stay-at-home mom and their bright-eyed son. But that’s not all she finds…


A bottle of prenatal vitamins in the bathroom cabinet reveal that Marlena is pregnant. Why didn’t Ben mention this in his panicked call to the police?


Digging deeper into their seemingly perfect marriage, Megan’s fear begins to grow. The couple are separated, there’s talk of an affair, and the neighbors report loud fights. And then, Megan tracks a young woman believed to be Ben’s secret girlfriend, only to find her lifeless body in a secluded wood.


Ben’s watch lies in the undergrowth, and Megan’s team think she’s cracked the case, but she’s sure something’s not right. Ben’s family has wealth including a private island, and connections in high places. Is someone trying to block their investigation?


As Megan starts to wonder if the answer lies on the Parkers’ closely guarded island, just offshore, a shocking revelation makes her question everything. With a killer on the loose, can Megan find the missing pieces to the most complex case of her career and bring Marlena and her little boy home alive? Or will it be too late to save them?


A totally edge-of-your-seat mystery thriller that will have you racing to the end, from a number one, New York TimesWall Street Journal and Amazon Charts bestselling author. Perfect for fans of Robert Dugoni, Michael Connelly and James Patterson.





A #1 New York Times, Amazon Charts, Wall Street Journal and USA Today bestselling author, Gregg Olsen has written nine nonfiction books, seventeen novels, a novella, and contributed a short story to a collection edited by Lee Child.


The award-winning author has been a guest on dozens of national and local television shows, including educational programs for the History Channel, Learning Channel, and Discovery Channel.

Review By

Heidi Lynn’s Book Reviews


First, I want to thank Gregg Olsen, Bookouture and NetGalley for providing me with this book so I may bring you this review. 


WOW!! Greg Olsen once again proves that he is the king of Psychological Thrillers!! I was ecstatic when I learned that he wrote his latest installment in the Detective Megan Carpenter Series!! The series gets better and better with each book he has written. However, Stillwater Island hands down is my favorite of them all! It was such a fantastic story that was incredibly dark, twisted, and utterly suspenseful. Stillwater Island is a book to put on your Christmas wish this year as it is a must read! 


Gregg would like to dedicate this book to Rick and Jennifer for making the trek from Tennessee to Washington to solidify a life-lasting friendship.


If you have read any of the books in the Detective Megan Carpenter series you will recognize familiar faces. Gregg gives us an update on Dan and Megan's relationship. We also get to hear (read) some of the famous tapes that I love so much. 


Stillwater Island is such an addictive and fast paced read that had me hooked from the first page. 


We got to see a whole new side of Gregg we have never seen before within Dan’s story. I was a little shocked but in a good way! 


Bennie pulled hard on my heart strings! He was just too cute and said the funniest things that just made me smile.
