Secrets come to light in this supernatural mystery, sending one teen on a journey that will change his life – forever.

Rockport is a small, seaside town. After the new girl at school is found murdered beneath the iconic, Mermaid Cliff, a group of teens will hunt for the killer or become the next victim. The town is thrust into the national spotlight, forcing an investigation into the town’s darkest secrets.
