Unlike many self-published books, this one is refreshingly free of editing errors – enough to make any book reviewer sigh with relief. This is Cameron’s first novel, self-published under his own company, Catch our Drift Productions. While the plot seems improbable, the characters ring true and the rich life of Ecuador that Cameron describes undeniably comes from his own first-hand knowledge of the country as a traveller. While volunteering at a project in the cloud forest, Oliver is seduced by a friendly colleague, stalked by a mysterious stranger and must follow a set of clues around the Ecuadoran countryside to find the physicist’s secret. He also meets an attractive widow whose physicist husband had invented an energy source that is putting the oil companies into a frenzy. He finds fragments of a letter in a dumpster, meets a cranky and eccentric engineer and sets out on a wandering Indiana Jones style quest to the jungles of Ecuador, leaving his wife and kids at Disney World. The main character, Oliver Bruce, is a man in mid-life crisis and the owner of the Sunshine Café on Vashon Island, Washington.
Goodnight Sunshine is a fictional tale with a ring of authenticity written by Gibsons author Mark Cameron.
