Plotline: After the suspicious death of her 2 college friends, Shay returns to the place where she died, and where they experienced a collective trauma that may be linked to her death in an effort to uncover the truth.

This was super interesting, but verrrrry heavy! Many trigger warnings needed for this one. I was hooked though - I loved the story being told partially through interview recordings and recollections of past events. A really good twist too. I'd have loved to have heard more of the back story of the "bad guy" in this.

Slow. I feel like story line was pretty clear. No twist. Characters were good.
