Publisher's Summary
You don’t choose them. They choose you.
The thrilling sequel Shadow of Fog Island is available now!
Sofia has just finished university and ended a troubled relationship when she attends a lecture about a New Age movement, Via Terra. Its leader is Franz Oswald, young, good-looking, urbane and mesmerizing.
When Sofia meets Franz Oswald, the handsome, charming leader of a mysterious New Age movement, she’s dazzled and intrigued. Visiting his headquarters on Fog Island, Sofia’s struck by the beautiful mansion overlooking the sea, the gardens, the sense of peace and the purposefulness of the people who live there. And she can’t ignore the attraction she feels for Franz.
So she agrees to stay, just for a while. But as summer gives way to winter, and the dense fog from which the island draws its name sets in, it becomes clear that Franz rules the island with an iron fist. No phones or computers are allowed. Contact with the mainland is severed. Electric fences surround the grounds. And Sofia begins to realize how very alone she is and that no one ever leaves Fog Island…
Flowers in the Attic meets The Girls, Fog Island is a gripping combination of fear, sexual tension and lethal fascination.
What the critics say
"I loved it - tense and atmospheric, slowly drawing the reader in to a reality that is utterly terrifying." (Lisa Hall)
"Chillingly authentic." (The Guardian)
"An intense, terrifying, and utterly believable journey into the shadowy world of cult leaders and cult members. A just-one-more-page thriller that will have you reading late into the night and holding your breath until the very end. I loved it!" (Karen Dionne, internationally best-selling author of Home)

It was different
You have to really listen to the story line to understand the background of who the bad guy is.It is confusing at first when the bad guy shows up at the end of some of the chapters but once you figure that out all the bits and pieces it falls together. It's not a religious cult but more like a Scientology cult mindset. Not much cussing and not any detailed porn sex that goes on for chapters. Liked the plots and story line twists and turns. It may not be for everybody.

Fog Island
This was such a good read start to finish. And based on a deeper truth experiences by the author and captured brilliantly. Having lived through the same experience and survived I can only admire Mariette for having created such a masterpiece out of such terrible times.

Not a bad page turner.
Wasn’t the best book ever, but I enjoyed it. One thing I wish they had done was have two readers. A female for the main character and a male for the male narrated parts. It was a little confusing with one reader.

Are there 2 different stories in here?
I feel like I am listening to 2 different stories. The narrators voice is the same for all characters so I don’t know who is speaking. There is no pause between”stories” so I cannot keep track of what’s going on
The story ( stories) are good, but one doesn’t( yet) seem to have anything to do with the other
I am only half way through, will continue listening just to see how the puzzle comes together surely they will explain it in the end
