Accidentally left behind on an island where the sun only rises once every several years, three children discover that they are not alone and flee through an alien landscape of deadly hazards, unexpected transformations, and dark truths.

Nightfall

"On a distant island where day and night exist on fourteen-year cycles, and the islanders migrate south each sunset, three children get left behind and must find a way off the island before the Night finds them"--

After I got past the initial scare the story wasn't that bad. This was not a true horror story and I am thankful because I wouldn't be able to handle it. I'm a big scaredy cat and this is as far as I will delve into this genre.

On Marin's island, sunrise only comes every twenty-eight years. Now the sun is just a sliver of light on the horizon. The dark is rising. And soon it will be Night. The eerie Evening sunset is causing the tide to begin its slow roll out, and so Marin, along with her twin brother Kana and the rest of the islanders, must begin preparations to sail south, where they will wait out the long Night. But first the house must be made ready for their departure. Locks must be taken off doors. Furniture must be arranged just so. Tables must be set as if for dinner. The rituals are bizarre, but none of the adults will discuss why things must be this way. And then just as the ships are about to sail, the twins' friend Line goes missing... A gripping and eerie thriller for ages 12-17.
