Skell Island feeds on them.
Marine biologist Cass Harrow arrives at an exclusive eco resort to film pristine reefs, hoping to salvage her career. Instead, she discovers a strange bloom spreading through the tide pools, the water system, and the guests themselves. First, they forget conversations. Then hours. Then entire pieces of who they are.
The staff call it wellness.
Cass knows a controlled experiment when she sees one.
When a violent storm cuts off escape, Cass uncovers the truth. The bloom is engineered. It adapts. It learns. And the resort was never built for relaxation. It was built as a containment zone for research that was never meant to see the light of day.
To survive, Cass must document the bloom and expose the program behind it. But the deeper she goes, the more the island presses against her mind, pushing her memories aside to make room for something new.
Stay in the lodge and suffocate in curated calm, or face what waits beneath the surface.
Either way, Skell Island will not let her leave unchanged.
Perfect for readers of eco horror, psychological dread, and slow burn thrillers, especially fans of Jeff VanderMeer, Stephen King, Silvia Moreno-Garcia, and T. Kingfisher.
The sea remembers.
And it does not forgive.
An eco horror thriller about memory, metamorphosis, and the ocean’s refusal to forget.
