The Rising Shore — Roanoke is a novel about the Lost Colony of Roanoke Island by Deborah Homsher. The story of the Lost Colony is one of America's first great mysteries. Historically, John White, the leader of the venture, sailed home to London for supplies and then returned three years later to find no trace of the hundred colonists he'd left in Virginia except the word "Croatoan" carved in a post.
