A novel by Arin Greenwood

Publisher: Back Porch Books
Released January 2011
Description: Nina Barker is a neurotic young New York lawyer whose life is coming apart. After suffering a lost job and a bad breakup, she flees the increasingly painful world she knows in favor of what she imagines - quite wrongly, it turns out - will be a simpler life on the remote island of Miramar. Populated with corrupt politicians, quirky and frequently intoxicated expats, ghosts, strippers, and a guy who may or may not be working for the CIA, Nina soon discovers her tropical escape isn't exactly paradise - it's also not boring.
Sometimes heartbreaking, often hilarious, Tropical Depression explores what happens when a person finds the change, adventure, and CIA agents she wasn't looking for.
Arin Greenwood is a writer and sometimes-lawyer who moved to Saipan in February, 2002, intending to stay for one year. Five and a half years later, she moved to the DC area, where she now lives with her partner Ray, their dog Murray and their cat Derrick. Arin's stories have appeared in dozens of publications, including Slate, the Washington CityPaper, the American Bar Association Journal, Mental Floss, Out Of The Storm News, and many others. Tropical Depression is Arin's first novel.
