âAn absolute master of modern horror. And a damn fine writer at thatâ- Guillermo del Toro
Itâs Rayâs and Sandraâs first family holiday in Greece, on the island of Vasilema. The skies are cloudier than anywhere else in Greece, and theyâre intrigued by local eccentricitiesâthe lack of mirrors, the outsize beach umbrellas, the saintâs day celebrated with an odd nocturnal ritual. Why are there islanders who seem to follow the family wherever they go? Why do Sandra and the teenage grandchildren have strangely similar dreams? Has Sandra been granted a wish she didnât know she made? Before their holiday is over, some of the family may learn too much about the secret that keeps the island alive.
