H💀ly sh⚠️T this book was good! From the very beginning you’re thrown into a scene of a woman fighting for her life. After that it’s like being on a roller coaster, climbing to the top—you know it’s going to be wild…then at about 35% in you better hang on. Absolutely enjoyed every grisly moment of this read. Recommend for readers who love evil kids, rural settings, small towns, and all the Hills Have Eyes vibes!
Here's the blurb:
September. A beautiful New York editor retreats to a lonely cabin on a hill in the quiet Maine beach town of Dead River—off season—awaiting her sister and friends. Nearby, a savage human family with a taste for flesh lurks in the darkening woods, watching, waiting for the moon to rise and night to fall...
And before too many hours pass, five civilized, sophisticated people and one tired old country sheriff will learn just how primitive we all are beneath the surface...and that there are no limits at all to the will to survive.
