Lord of the Flies meets Agatha Christie.
When 6 teens go on a week long holiday to a private remote island, mystery awaits as their guide suddenly dies.
When each of their secret phobias start being played out, it becomes about survival when they can't get off the island.
Such a thrilling, un-put downable book, that leaves you holding your breath at everything that happens and makes you wonder how they will ever get off the island.
