“This is truly a delicious combination of two of my favorite things—John Grisham and audiobooks. I’m a huge fan of this series, and getting to read Camino Ghosts was, in a word, lovely.”—Whoopi Goldberg

#1 New York Times bestselling author John Grisham’s latest thriller Camino Ghosts (out May 28th) will be narrated by Emmy, Grammy, Oscar, Tony, and Golden Globe-winning actor Whoopi Goldberg, with John Grisham narrating the audiobook-exclusive introduction.

Goldberg is a fan of Grisham’s work and enthusiastic longtime audiobook listener (she was a guest judge at the 2023 Audio Publishers Association’s Audie Awards). She currently moderates ABC’s The View and has earned acclaim for her work on stage and screen, including award-winning performances in movies like Ghost and The Color Purple. Her new memoir, Bits and Pieces: My Mother, My Brother, and Me, will also be out this May.

In this new audiobook, Grisham and Goldberg transport listeners back to Camino Island. Bookseller Bruce Cable and novelist Mercer Mann have again managed to find trouble in paradise, this time between a resort developer using political muscle and deep pockets to claim ownership of a deserted island between Florida and Georgia and the last living inhabitant of the island, Lovely Jackson, who stands in its way.

“Thanks to Whoopi Goldberg for narrating this audiobook. Lovely Jackson is the heart of Camino Ghosts, and Whoopi’s immense talent and instantly recognizable voice are the perfect fit to tell this story. Listeners, you are in for a real treat,” says Grisham about Goldberg’s narration.

Of her experience recording the audiobook, Goldberg says, “This is truly a delicious combination of two of my favorite things—John Grisham and audiobooks. I’m a huge fan of this series, and getting to read Camino Ghosts was, in a word, lovely.”

Camino Ghosts is the third installment in Grisham’s Camino series, following Camino Island and Camino Winds. Grisham’s novels have sold more than 400 million copies worldwide.
