Description

A college freshman’s carefree yacht trip through the Bahamas turns into a desperate fight for survival when an explosion leaves him and six others stranded on a remote island. Recording events in a journal, Rupert struggles to endure the harsh environment while tensions, secrets, and suspicion begin to fracture the group. Blending psychological suspense, survival horror, and shocking violence, the novel explores fear, isolation, and the fragile boundaries of trust. The vivid tropical setting and relentlessly escalating pace create a tense, unsettling reading experience.
