Luca Fern has been a girl with a morbid fascination for disguises ever since a case of mistaken identity lead to her mother's murder. Moving to Bottle Island was supposed to heal her obsessive behaviours, but instead it has revealed a mystery that could swallow her whole. 

As tradition on the island, Altswood High School organizes an annual game called the Hunt: a thrill-seeking contest among peers of seek and eliminate. But this year, instead of an innocent paint pellet, players are being eliminated permanently with bullets to the head. The head investigator, Luca's own father, is stumped as the death toll increases. Soon Luca will be next, and if she cannot bring light to the hidden secrets within Altswood High's traditions, then she too will die in this twisted version of the Hunt.

30 parts Complete Mature
'What would be your last thoughts if you knew, your life was to be taken, in less than the blink of an eye? How would you live being in constant fear? Or being watched? Or not knowing when it will strike?' Lenora is your cliché teenager in school. The average, introverted, and shy student. But with a piquant and witty side. She always valued everything in life; never choosing to be greedy and cruel, content with how everything is. When something life changing happens, Lenora begins to set out with a new mindset; on the hunt to find the 'mysterious person' who endangered her life. There was something much more than just a 'supposed' shooting. Come and see what lurks behind the dark corners. From behind the rustling bushes. To where the mysterious 'clicks' keep coming from. Come and understand one's betrayal and thirst for utter vengeance. (SNEAK PEEK): ''Why are you doing this!'' Lorena screamed. The ropes restraining her tightened. She can feel the cool tip of the knife run along her half-naked body. Her tears threaten to fall; but she does not let them. ''Oh baby, it's because you're letting me.'' He whispers. ''Let's play.'' © Goofballnerd 2015 / Edited 2018
