Synopsis

There’s a saying on Fall Island: if you’re not careful, the snow will get you.Gracie Hutchinson has lived on Fall Island her whole life and knows there’s some truth to those words. Fall’s snowstorms have a spooky way of claiming people, making them disappear without a trace, or driving them mad. Now, with a hundred-year-storm approaching, most of Fall’s residents have fled to the mainland. But not Gracie. Left behind her with physician father, she braces for landfall.Gracie’s not the only one stuck on Fall for the storm. Her classmate Joseph Wescott, descendant of the legendary pioneer who founded Fall Island, has stayed, too. After a chance encounter, the two stumble across something more unsettling than the snow: a ritually mutilated corpse. By night, as the snow begins to fall, it becomes clear that whoever (or whatever) murdered the man they found has their sights set on Gracie.Seeking refuge at Wescott Manor, Gracie feels safe surrounded by dozens of locals hunkered down in the huge house. But as the storm assaults the island, Gracie discovers secrets that have been kept since Fall was settled. If she can’t uncover the hidden history and terrifying truth about Fall Island before the storm’s end, she’ll be the next to disappear into the snow.

This one just felt like all the other ‘trapped in a snow storm’ books that I’ve read. A 100 year storm hits a small community. The main character is not really friends with the rich boy from school but he invites her to ride the storm out with him. No one can be trusted as everything gets very awkwa......more

Goodreads review by Liz on October 06, 2024

This was a crazy twisty turny YA horror book. I thought it was highly entertaining, and it definitely has the creepy factor. This book about girl stuck on an island in a snowstorm contains a cult like church, murder, betrayal, supernatural elements and lots of action. Although a YA book , it does con......more

Goodreads review by Shannon on November 10, 2024

4.5* Okay I could not put this book down. I read it in one sitting, because I genuinely could not stop. It is that compulsively readable. It's dark too, which I loved, and just... look, I am trying to not say too much because it is so full of twists and turns and jaw-dropping moments that I really wa......more
