Just how many deaths does it take to close a holiday park?
All Lacy wants is to escape to Paris and be with her older sister. But she needs to make some money first, so she takes a summer job at a caravan park in North Wales.
When one of the guests is brutally murdered, rumours start to swirl about the park being haunted. There are sightings of a mysterious figure walking along the clifftops at night and Lacy can't shake off the feeling that she's being watched. Could there be some truth to the stories? And can she discover who - or what - the killer is before she becomes the next victim?
Tess James-Mackey is an author based in Shrewsbury who loves writing teens into terrifying situations inspired by her lived experiences. Her YA debut Someone is Watching You published in 2023. When she's not allowing her mind to wander to dark and twisty places, she pursues more wholesome activities, like growing mediocre vegetables in her garden, camping with her daughter, and the odd bit of horse riding when she's feeling brave enough.
