First Episode

In the first episode of Harper's Island, people gather for a wedding on Harper's Island. What they do not know is that there is a serial killer among them. Soon it will be a horrific event that will lead to many killings and on the 13th episode, the killer will be revealed. This show was just like the beginning of the book. There were a lot of new characters, it was pretty boring, and nothing very eventful happened.

Harpers Island

An interesting thing about the show is the amount of characters, in the book there are only ten main characters, but in the show there are at least twenty main characters. Although there are some similarities to the book, the show and the book do not directly correspond. None of the names are the same and their is even a bride and her father in the show (Thomas Wellington and Trish Wellington), along those lines there is a lot more family relationship in the show then in the book.
