The Mark Beneath Our Skin |.| L. MATTHEWS
In the endless wilderness, survival strips you down to what you really are. For Alana Willis, that means confronting the brutal truth she's spent her whole life outrunning. That the darkness isn't surrounding her, it's always been buried deep inside.
After the crash, hunger and violence twist the remaining survivors into something unrecognizable. But while the others fight to hold on to what's left of themselves, Alana begins to realize she was built for this. The blood, the fear, the hunger- it feels like home. As the line between necessity and cruelty blurs, Alana must decide whether to keep pretending she's better than the things she's done... or embrace the terrifying truth.
