10 to 15 years ago there was a series of books (some may say trash novels) about SXM. I think there were about a woman who escaped to the island.

Anyone remember the series?

Tom--I confess, I have not read any of the novels supposedly about SXM. However, I do remember some by I think B.D. Anderson?? and Jacky Rom.

There was a female author who stayed at The Horny Toad, we met her a couple of times. Raina WIssing Harris wrote a few books from what I recall. Jacky Rom is fairly new. Sorry, not a fan.

There was a trilogy (and it wasn't great literature - lol) By Ben Carlisle. The first bookin the series was "Escape to the Islands". I read the entire series - again not for much more than the SXM settings.
