It was supposed to be a harmless camping trip. Six wayward teenagers who'd run into trouble with the law, and their court-appointed guardians, Sara and Martin Randhurst.
Three nights on a small, deserted island off of Michigan's upper peninsula. A time to bond, to learn, to heal.
Then Martin told a campfire story about the island's history. Of the old civil war prison hidden in there, and the starving confederate soldiers who resorted to cannibalism to stay alive. Everyone thought it was funny. They even laughed when Martin pretended to be dragged off into the woods.
But Martin didn't come back. And neither did Sara when she went in search of him. Then the laughter stopped. The group soon began to realize that this deserted island wasn't so deserted after all. And perhaps Martin's ridiculous story had more truth to it than anyone thought.
What's the most horrifying thing you can imagine? This is a hundred times worse..

I have not read anything like it, and doubt I w...
I tend to veer towards books full of suspense and murder, and this book fulfilled just that. At times the author would get so descriptive and vile with the murders that it would almost make you want to put the book down, but like a train wreck, you just can't look away. I rated this book a 4 because...
I listened to this book on audio, and while I didn't find it scary, it was definitely bloody and gory in a slasher film kind of way. Sara and Martin are guardians to six difficult, troubled, teenagers. They take them camping on an island that is supposedly deserted. But, surprise, the island is h...
Though commencing as a fairly straight forward riff on the cliched theme of "pack of people in a remote location being picked off one by one by some form of unseen assailant", Kilborn quickly ratchets up the crazy (and inventiveness) in introducing threat after threat that the beleaguered band of pr...
If this is a movie, I’d have enjoyed it more. All the gore and blood on screen! Besides those, there really only very few things that I liked…or at least, okay with, in this story. First and foremost, Tyrone. Damn! I have a crush on him. If he’s real, I’d want to hang out with him. “Too many people...
