it was amazing

Weird things are happening in this South Florida town; our main character can hardly make peace with it all.

I am so thankful to Spotify Audiobooks, Laura van den Berg, FSG, and Netgalley for granting me an advanced audiobook and physical copies of this eerie tale before it hits shelves on July 9, 2024.

After moving home to take care of her sick father, our ghostwriter main character and her husband find themselves stuck in this South Florida home, even after his death, due to the limitations of the pandemic. Surrounded by violence and Confederate flag appearances, they realize this place is not their home and so unlike anything they are used to. Moreover, our MC's sister becomes slowly entranced by her MIND'S EYE VR device, where she escapes reality and goes elsewhere every day, leaving her problems behind, until one day, she indeed does go missing, leaving her family to worry about her state.

After suspecting that her mother is the overseer of a cult right in their backyard, and the list of missing persons' posters continues to grow, it's safe to say that there is something really off about this town. Our MC is doing her best to remain the glue that keeps everything together.
