Review

From the very first page this book grabs you. A true teen horror, thriller. 16 year old city girl Callie Velasquez agrees to go on a camping trip with some popular kids from her new school. Callie is not the outdoors type and seems to sense from the very beginning that this trip is going to be like none other and not in a good way.

Suspicion turns to fright turns to horror by the end of the book. An edge of your seat story and stay up all night read that will appeal to teens and adults alike. Unusual but possible classroom read. Highly recommend. Cream.

Overall Book Score: very good
