Sinister Paradise Produced by Greg Weeks and the Online Distributed Proofreading Team at http://www.pgdp.net "Sinister Paradise" by Robert Moore Williams is a science fiction novel written in the early 1950s. The story unfolds around a mysterious island off the California coast that appears like a mirage, and centers on themes of adventure, mental manipulation, and the intersection of reality and illusion. The narrative follows Bill Parker, a helicopter pilot who takes on a job for the enigmatic scientist Johnny Retch and his stunning secretary, Mercedes Valdar. The trio's journey becomes a fight for survival when their helicopter crashes, forcing them to confront the island's strange phenomena and its inhabitants, including ghostly pirates and supernatural creatures known as Jezbro. As secrets unfold, Parker discovers that the island holds not just danger, but a link to his past and a chance to save his lost love, Effra, who has been trapped in a cycle of amnesia. The story ultimately pivots around Parker's quest to thwart Retch's sinister plans, reclaim his love, and navigate the peculiar dynamics of the island that seem to challenge the very fabric of time itself.
