SCARLETT POINT is a 6000 word short story from the Number One Bestselling author of SAFE HOUSE.
Cutler is a man with a secret, camping by the coast on the Isle of Man. Luke is a young boy hunting for an elusive treasure from an incomplete map. Their lives collide at SCARLETT POINT in a captivating story about trust, redemption and how sometimes you find what you most need when you’re searching for something else.
SCARLETT POINT was originally commissioned by the Isle of Man Arts Council as part of the Island of Culture initiative and is now available exclusively as a Kindle Single.
