    Has she found a home? Or joined a cult?

    After signing the lease on a cute yellow beach cottage in an idyllic island community where she’s welcomed with open arms, she thinks she’s finally found a place to call home. But this picture-perfect haven has a dark side and once you’ve seen it, you face a stark choice. You can stay and keep its secrets. Or you can try to escape…

    At twenty-nine, Alison Marshall is ready to find a place to call home. She’s drifted from one small Florida town to another since high school, working odd jobs, saving hard, and building a nest egg. Once she finds the right place to settle down, she’ll know. And when she reaches beautiful Palmetto Island, she thinks she may have found it.

    The small, close-knit island community seems to have everything Alison needs. On a hunch, she contacts the island’s only realtor and learns that an old beach house is on the market. At first, home is everything she hoped it would be. But as days turn into weeks, she uncovers a dark side to this supposedly peaceful haven. The locals have a secret, and once Alison discovers what it is, she faces a stark choice. She can stay and join them—or escape. But leaving brings its own risks, and Alison is starting to wonder if coming to Palmetto Island is the last mistake she’ll ever make . . .
