16yo Grace can’t wait to graduate and leave Fall Island forever - she isn’t planning on sticking around like so many of her fellow islanders. Who cares if the Wescott founders were supposedly led to the island by a blue-lit angel sent from God. And Grace knows when the snow falls fast and thick, someone is probably going to die. Well, it isn’t going to be her. A chance encounter with Joseph Wescott a dark snowy nights leads them to discover the ritualistic murders of a man and three sheep - something is afoot-tonight! 

Creepy danger, secretive cults, major back-stabbing and betrayals - in the dark, cold, nights of winter. Add this to your creepy horror books if you dare.
