Based on the acclaimed New York Times bestseller from Dennis Lehane (Mystic River; Gone, Baby, Gone), the gripping psychological thriller Shutter Island is now a full-color graphic novel. The tense and twisting story that inspired the blockbuster film directed by Academy Award–winner Martin Scorsese and starring Leonardo DiCaprio has been given a breathtaking new life by internationally renowned artist Christian De Metter. Shutter Island, the graphic novel, was an Official Selection at the 2009 Angouleme International Comics Festival, Europe’s top comics exposition.
