In this gripping literary horror, Cases best friend Drea goes missing, forcing her into a bizarre, cultlikeand possibly murderous worldperfect for fans of The Honeys and Mexican Gothic. Something bad happened here. When Case arrives at a run-down, ivy-covered house tucked deep in the West Texas woods, an ashy haze lingers in the air and the sky is tissue-paper pink. Her best friend Drea has been living here with a few classmates Case has never met, and Drea asked her to visit in a letter dated two weeks ago. But now Drea is nowhere to be found. Dreas roommates cantor wontanswer questions, leaving Case to search alone. She finds bits of Dreas journal hidden in the tiles of the bathroom wall, in a beat-up cooler by the muddy river, wedged into the frame of her closet door. As Case pieces together Dreas life in this strange house, the roommates behavior puts her increasingly on edgeand shes not the only one. The animals nearby are lashing out, attacking each other, threatening the humans. Something bad happened in this house. Something that must be connected to Dreas disappearance. And if she gets too close to the truth, Case just might be next.
