This time, she’s not the victim.

Daphne survived The Purgatorium.

Now it’s her turn to run it.

After enduring Dr. Hortense Gray’s experimental “living art” therapy, Daphne is invited to participate from the other side—designing psychological games for the people who hurt her most.

Her parents.

Her boyfriend.

Revenge has never felt so justified.

But power changes everything.

As staged hauntings escalate into real danger—helicopters, caves, snakes, blood in the water—Daphne begins to realize the line between therapy and cruelty is thinner than she thought.

And when real bullets fly and lives hang in the balance, Daphne must decide:

Will she protect the illusion . . . or protect the people she loves?

On an island where fear is medicine and truth is forbidden, Daphne is learning something terrifying—

Sometimes becoming stronger means becoming someone you don’t recognize.

In this gripping YA romance-thriller, love deepens, loyalties fracture, and the cost of revenge may be more than Daphne is willing to pay.
