Wicker Man meets Final Destination in Jennifer Thorne\'s atmospheric, unsettling folk horror novel about love, duty, and community.
When The Day ends, Nina--and Lute--will never be the same..
Of love, at its most pure and untamed.
Of survival and strength.
But it is also a day of community.
And it\'s a day of nightmares, of grief, of reckoning.
Then The Day begins.
Stories told to keep newcomers at bay and youngsters in line.
It\'s all superstitious nonsense.
Heard about the horrific tragedies, the lives lost, but she doesn\'t believe in it.
Nina\'s heard about The Day, of course.
A Florida girl by birth, she became a Lady through her marriage to Lord Treadway, whose family has long protected the island.
Nina Treadway is new to The Day.
So it\'s only fair that every seven years, on the day of the tithe, the island\'s gift is honored.
They live a happy, superior life, untouched by the war that rages all around them.
Lute and its inhabitants are blessed, year after year, with good weather, good health, and good fortune.
No more, no less.
On the idyllic island of Lute, every seventh summer, seven people die.
