Margot McGovern’s homage to 90s horror films and final girls will keep you on the edge of your seat.

Four girls share a cabin on their school retreat – in an abandoned town where the ghost of Smiling Jack is known to haunt the isolated campers.

Shelley is the new girl with her own haunted past.
Mack made things awkward by kissing her best friend.
Priya thinks she’s ready to take the next step with her boyfriend.
Raffi has a flair for drama, and convinces them all to hold a seance.

But when you call on the darkness, sometimes the darkness replies . . .

‘Powerful, heartbreaking, hair-raising and absolutely terrifying. This feminist ode to the 90s slasher films is twisty, clever and frightening from beginning to end.’ AMY DOAK, bestselling author of Eleanor Jones is Not a Murderer
