Publisher's summary

Midsommar meets White Lotus in this supernatural thriller centered around an emotionally codependent woman on the run from her own life. She finds paradise, but it may come at a cost that she's unable to pay....

Leigh Ramos—a woman on the run from her ex-boyfriend and the dangerous life she left behind—is starting over in Hawaii with a new name and hopes to leave her past behind her. She’s doing okay. A new job. Great friends. And a love interest in her new boss. But something seems off. The itch to run is back and the island seems to be rejecting her at every turn.

There’s a darkness looming on the island and it seems that the only thing that will save them is a sacrifice that will cost a little bit of something from everyone. Will this new life be all that she’s ever wished for, or is the island going to claim her, too?

From author Jon Cohn comes the next great horror book that blends danger, supernatural creatures, and the unknown into an unforgettable story.

Captivating and creepy from start to finish!

Wow, I LOVED this book. I'm not usually a horror guy, but I am so glad I gave this one a listen. It's thrilling, original, and just the right amount of messed up.

Great storytelling with horror, humor, cultural folklore, and foreshadowing that really pays off in the end

The twists and turns just kept coming. A emotional roller coaster that left me feeling both exhilarated and kind of sick to my stomach. The epilogue was the cherry on top.

Narration was great as well.

Can't wait to see what the author does next!
