A parent would reach for this book when their teenager is processing a traumatic event or struggling with a sense of powerlessness and repressed anger. This dark, cinematic horror story follows a group of friends trapped on a cursed island by a vengeful mist and a predatory sea creature. As the external monsters close in, the protagonist, Nell, must confront the traumatic secret of an assault she survived a year ago to unlock the power needed to save her friends. It is a raw, intense exploration of female rage, the weight of secrets, and the transition from victim to survivor. Parents should be aware that this is a mature YA title that deals directly with the emotional aftermath of sexual assault and contains significant gore. It is best suited for older teens who find catharsis in dark fantasy and are looking for stories that validate their anger as a tool for reclamation rather than something to be suppressed.
