I had the idea for The Vacationer while sitting on a beach in Motu Mahana, French Polynesia in 2012. The idea hit like a brick while staring out into the water and sipping on coconut water straight from a coconut. It was so vivid, I went and asked for a pen and paper from the bar and began writing down an outline. I wrote the first draft of book while on a three-month sabbatical in Asia and Europe in 2014. I am the owner of Patrick Adams Books, a company dedicated to publishing and author services. The Vacationer is my first novel and I am excited to bring that idea that came to me while enjoying a sunny day in paradise finally into existence!
