About the Book

Olsen follows up his initial success with Diplomatic Immunity with a second tale, Williams' Island. This book is a continuation of story of the Ash family and their private battle against Karl Movick, one of the most diabolical villains the literary world has ever known. Fast-paced and brimming with action, Olsen leaves room for a few surprises, as well.

Whether or not you've read Diplomatic Immunity or are just now experiencing the thrill of Olsen's books, Williams' Island is sure to please. Buckle your seat belt, grab your reading light and get ready for the ride of your life -- this is the kind of story your mother warned you about!

Praise for DIPLOMATIC IMMUNITY...

If you're looking for yet another book that's heavy with long-winded narration and little dialogue- you know, something that'll help you sleep at night- then by all means, avoid Diplomatic Immunity. Diplomatic Immunity not only means to entertain by delivering a barrage of fast and furious adventure sequences, it also manages to shock you from your comfort zone. After all, if it can happen to Joe Ash's family, why not yours?
From Bev Walton-Porter / Scribe and Quill

A knuckle whitening read. It keeps moving and brings the reality of what could actually happen to any family. I would recomend this book to anyone who enjoys an exciting novel. Finally a book that kept me reading.

I would love to read another book from this author. The only fault I could find is it ended too soon. Looking forward to Mr.Olsen's next novel.

I use to read because it was exciting, then I would read looking for something exciting. After reading this book I've found it! Excellent!

Right to the point. An easy read all the way through and really kept my interest. When is his next book going to be released?

I couldn't find a lull anywhere in this book. It was nice to NOT have the urge to skip pages because I was beginning to get board. It was exciting all the way to the end.

On the edge from start to finish I found myself getting up an hour early in the mornings to have time to read this book without any interruptions from the kids. I couldn't stop reading it. Being a parent I could relate to the terror of this family.

Gripping......I couldn't set it down. A terrific read. Olsen is a first-rate storyteller. Definitely recommended!

It had me hooked in the first four pages! Nice and refreshing to read a book that kept my interest 100% of the time. Where has this guy been?
