Description

Where Angels dare to tread, humanity hangs in the balance...

Unable to get spirit guide Lindsay Featherstone out of his head, billionaire Cole Hollingsworth is drawn back to the mysterious island that he and Lindsay helped spawn in the Caribbean Sea over six months ago, while searching for his deceased parents. Cole is convinced Lindsay lives on inside the mountain. Determined to find her, Cole abandons his CEO position at his publishing empire in a desperate attempt to reconnect with the only woman he has ever loved.

Now the tallest mountain on the planet and still growing, what is taking place inside the volcano may be the strangest aspect of all. Whispers of new life forms abound. Cole struggles to find an entrance inside, only to be met by otherworldly creatures bent on blocking his passage, while issuing a dire warning of an impending environmental catastrophe if humanity fails to change its ways.

"Hollingsworth Island" is a gripping tale that seamlessly blends elements of mystery, romance, and environmental urgency into a compelling narrative. What I found most intriguing about this book is its imaginative premise, where the search for lost love intertwines with the threat of ecological disaster. Cole Hollingsworth's journey from corporate magnate to intrepid explorer is both heart-wrenching and inspiring, showcasing the lengths one will go to for love and redemption. As he confronts otherworldly creatures and navigates the treacherous terrain of the mysterious island, the stakes escalate, keeping me on the edge of my seat with each turn of the page. With its seamless fusion of supernatural elements and real-world issues, This book offers a thought-provoking exploration of humanity's relationship with the natural world and the power of love to transcend all boundaries.

The author, in this second installment, which by the way surpasses the first book, tries to raise awareness in the reader about the dangers and environmental problems that Humanity, in its ignorance and greed, has created and continues to aggravate day by day: pollution, logging indiscriminate hunting and fishing without any control.
This book is an ecological manifesto. A wake-up call to Humanity: This is our planet, our only home, and we are killing it! This paragraph especially caught my attention:
"It wasn't until the dawning of the human race that the true destruction began. Slowly— but, in the perspective of Earth's timeline, taking only a moment— humans have seized from the earth its very lifeblood by ravaging it of non-renewable resources, sucking out oil and other precious minerals selfishly. And, in the process, creating great strife among nations. And now, our watchwords are sustainable, renewable, and such, but little is being done other than talk. The advocates are in a minority and are being quashed by the powerful. And the puppet masters are hard at work, ensuring the continuing destruction of this precious sphere that hangs in space, the only outpost for human life in the galaxy."
An excellent read, a plot that presents a current problem of vital importance for the survival of our planet, very well designed covers, very human characters, in short, a book that should be read in educational centers. I highly recommend it and I hope that the third book doesn't take long to be published.
I thank the author and NetGalley for the opportunity to read this book.
The opinion I have expressed above is based solely on what I think and feel about this book.
