The Island of Palm Trees Michael Walsh-Rose

What's the price of inspiration?

Tom Jennings is about to find out.



With dreams of writing his first novel, Tom travels to the Scarlett Grove Hotel in Roquetas De Mar. His writing progresses steadily, aided by the interesting and unusual people he meets beneath the Spanish Sun. People unlike anyone he's ever met before.

A young thief hiding from her haunted past.

A grieving mother mourning the loss of her child.

An abusive husband fuelled by alcohol and rage.

A lonely woman desperate to keep hold of her families business.

A spoilt millionaire who's never been told no.

An ego-driven drug dealer who controls the town.

With blood spilled and more danger looming just ahead, Tom forgets about his novel entirely. Now the only thing that matters is escaping with his life.
