The murder mystery continues after another body is discovered! The remaining guests on the storm-ravaged island wake from the same eerie nightmare to find that one of them has been the next victim of a brutal killing! But Sarah and Marie-Therese are starting to suspect that there may be more than one murderer afoot. Who is the killer, and if they're not discovered, who might they target next?

Two bodies down . . . how many more to go? A raging storm keeps the group of occult collectors trapped on the island, but some of them appear to be more restless than others. Sarah and Marie Therese divide and conquer, following the two prime suspects down two different, but equally perilous, paths to danger!

Sarah Jewell catches one murder suspect red-handed in a bid to steal an occult artifact, while Marie Therese continues to pursue her own suspicions. But the culprit they finally discover is the one person neither one of them suspected!

Sarah and Marie Therese have identified the murderer, but that turns out to be the least of their concerns! As supernatural forces stretch their influence over the island where Sarah and the others are trapped, one persons selfishness and folly could be everyone's undoing.
