Fear thy neighbor

Summary: Alison Marshall has drifted from one small Florida town to another since high school, working odd jobs, saving hard, and building a nest egg. When she reaches Palmetto Island, she thinks it could be the right place to settle down. She contacts the island's only realtor, and learns that an old beach house is on the market. It's in her budget, and Alison takes it as another sign that she's in the right place. As days turn into weeks, she uncovers a dark side to this supposedly peaceful haven. The locals have a secret, and once Alison discovers what it is, she faces a stark choice. She can stay and join them -- or escape. Alison is starting to wonder if coming to Palmetto Island is the last mistake she'll ever make.
