“Island of Tears” is far different from all of Troy Soos’s other books. This time the work has nothing to do with baseball. The novel takes place in the 1890s in New York when America opened Ellis Island, involving corrupt police, immigration and a murder. The writing is very easy with characters that are realistic, while the description of the time period is very educational. “Island of Tears” is a great novel to read and enjoy.
