From Chelsea Ichaso, author of Dead Girls Can't Tell Secrets, comes a propulsive new thriller! Twenty years ago, a shocking murder closed down Fairport Village. This year, the ruins will be bulldozed at last. But tonight, it's not too late to die.
All her life, Eden Stafford has heard the lore about the abandoned beach resort at the edge of town: ever since the notorious murder there, anyone who sets foot on the property is cursed to die. In fact, two high school students who dared to explore the ruins of Fairport Village were mysteriously killed.
Eden's no stranger to notoriety herself, after a family scandal made her a target at school. So when she reluctantly attends an overnight party at the ruins, she's on edge—not because of some legend, but because the clique that has made her life hell for years is there, too.
That night, another student dies at Fairport Village. Though the death is ruled an accident, Eden's not so sure—she saw something, and her longtime tormentors were witnesses too. Now they're all being followed by a deadly stranger, and to save themselves, they must work together to uncover the truth about Fairport Village. But can Eden really trust these classmates? Or will they leave her to face a killer alone?
