It promises to grant every desire the girls have kept locked away in their insecure hearts―beauty, power, adoration―in exchange for a price: human body parts.
One night Finch, Selena, and her friends accidentally summon a carnivorous creature of immense power in the depths of the school. But despite Selena's suspicion, she feels drawn to Finch and has a sinking feeling that from now on the two will be inexplicably linked to one another.

Finch doesn't know why she woke up after her heart stopped, but since dying she's felt a constant pull from the school and the surrounding town of Rainwater, like something on the island is calling to her. But something monstrous, and ancient, and terrifying, wouldn't let her drown. Months before school started, Finch and her parents got into an accident that should have left her dead at the bottom of a river.
