BOAR ISLAND
Book ID/图书代码： 03880015B82188
English Summary/英文概要： Anna Pigeon, in her career as a National Park Service Ranger, has had to deal with all manner of crimes and misdemeanors, but cyber-bullying and stalking is a new one. The target is Elizabeth, the adopted teenage daughter of her friend Heath Jarrod. Elizabeth is driven to despair by the disgusting rumors spreading online and bullying texts. Until, one day, Heath finds her daughter Elizabeth in the midst of an unsuccessful suicide attempt. And then she calls in the cavalry---her aunt Gwen and her friend Anna Pigeon.
While they try to deal with the fragile state of affairs---and find the person behind the harassment---the three adults decide the best thing to do is to remove Elizabeth from the situation. Since Anna is about to start her new post as Acting Chief Ranger at Acadia National Park in Maine, the three will join her and stay at a house on the cliff of a small island near the park, Boar Island.
But the move east doesn’t solve the problem. The stalker has followed them east. And Heath (a paraplegic) and Elizabeth aren’t alone on the otherwise deserted island. At the same time, Anna has barely arrived at Acadia before a brutal murder is committed by a killer uncomfortably close to her.
BOAR ISLAND is a brilliant intertwining of past and present, of victims and killers, in a compelling novel that only Nevada Barr could write.
Chinese Summary/中文概要： 安娜•皮金是一名美国国家公园巡逻员，她的工作是应对处理各种各样的犯罪即不当行为，网络暴力和跟踪算是其中较新的两种。这次行动的目标是她的朋友希思•贾罗德收养的女儿，青少年伊丽莎白。网络上疯传的可怕传言和暴力言语几乎要将伊丽莎白逼到绝境。某一天，希思更是无意中发现了女儿伊丽莎白一次未能成功的自杀尝试。她即刻寻求了外援-- 姨妈格温和好友安娜•皮金。
尽管三个成年人尝试去处理这一支离破碎的事态--她们尝试着去揪出这一骚扰背后的主谋--她们还是最终决定最好的解决方法便是让伊丽莎白离开这一环境。考虑到安娜即前往缅因州阿科底亚国家公园担任巡逻行动总指挥，其他三人也将随后加入她，并和她一同住在公园旁波尔小岛上一个悬崖边的房子里。
然而这次东迁并没有解决问题。跟踪狂也追随她们而去。并且，在这座荒废的小岛上，希思（高位截瘫）和伊丽莎白也并非只是独自两人。与此同时，一场凶残的谋杀案件就发生在了安娜身边，导致她险些没能成功抵达阿科底亚。
《波尔岛》巧妙地让过去与现在，受害者与凶手交织在一起，这样一部步步紧逼引人入胜的作品，只有作者内瓦达•巴尔能写出。（DC）
