Sinopsis

In 'Squire Phin,' Holman Day weaves an intricate narrative that combines elements of humor, drama, and local color, set against the backdrop of rural New England. The story centers around the titular character, Squire Phin, a charismatic but flawed figure whose life reflects the complexities of small-town dynamics and personal ambition. Day's masterful prose encapsulates the dialect and nuances of rural life, drawing readers into a rich tapestry of interwoven lives, moral dilemmas, and the inevitable clash between societal expectations and individual desires. The novel, emblematic of the early 20th-century American literature, captures the spirit of its time through its vivid descriptions and relatable characters, all while offering a subtle critique of conventional social mores. Holman Day, an author deeply rooted in the New England landscape, drew upon his own experiences and observations of rural life when crafting 'Squire Phin.' Born in Maine in 1865, Day's literary career flourished amid the burgeoning American literature scene, and his acute awareness of community and identity profoundly influenced his storytelling. His ability to portray the quirks and virtues of small-town life is a testament to his profound insight into human nature and social interaction. 'Squire Phin' is a compelling read for anyone interested in the interplay of character and community. Day's nuanced exploration of personal ambition and moral conflict will resonate with readers seeking both entertainment and reflection. This novel is not just a story; it is an invitation to ponder the complexities of human relationships within the confines of societal norms.

After watching his yacht burn to the waterline in a fiery explosion, Jerry Snyder is forced to make a deal with the only devil who can help track down a lead—his estranged, mob-connected father figure, Arlen Burkhart. 
The investigation starts on unsure footing, and Jerry’s deal with Arlen goes from bad to worse when, at a funeral held on a private Caribbean island where the uber-wealthy have met to pay respects to one of their own, bodies begin to wash up at Jerry's feet like fish on a red tide. 
In this luxurious tropical paradise, murder, blackmail, and deceit are the name of the game, and secrets are as abundant as sins. Before Jerry can determine who is trying to kill the funeral attendees, he'll not only have to risk his life, but he’ll also have to confront a past which threatens to claim his very soul.
