Four friends stay at the lake in Mia’s family cabin so they can just have a good time. They’re suddenly without a phone or vehicle because someone has tampered with them. They try to figure out who is doing the tampering while trying to protect themselves and stay safe. One by one, they end up dying and the killer is revealed. 

Quick read with a great twist. I didn’t appreciate the overly detailed sex. I liked that it was a quick read. I enjoyed the twist at the end. Includes as LGBT main character
