Hereafter

2014
"Rory Miller thought her life was over when a notorious serial killer set his sights on her, forcing her family into witness protection. But her new home, a remote island with azure blue skies and white-sand beaches, seems like heaven on earth...at least at first. Juniper Landing isn't like other islands. And the truth about the swirling fog that rolls in each morning is even more terrifying than being hunted by Steven Neil. Now that Rory knows about the real Juniper Landing, she must face the most painful truth of all: she can never go home again. From the best-selling author of the Private and Privilege series comes the second novel in a gripping trilogy about a girl who must leave behind the only life she's ever known -- without looking back."--from the back cover.
