Neverland
Douglas Clegg
From Douglas Clegg, New York Times bestselling author of Isis,
comes a southern gothic tale of family secrets and games of innocence
turned to darkness. For years, the Jackson family has vacationed at
Rowena Wandigaux Lee's old Victorian house on Gull Island, a place of
superstition and legend off the southern coast of the U.S. One
particular summer, young Beau follows his cousin Sumter into a hidden
shack in the woods—and christens this new clubhouse "Neverland."
Neverland has a secret history, unknown to the children... The rundown
shack in the woods is the key to an age-old mystery, a place forbidden
to all. But Sumter and his cousins gather in its dusty shadows to escape
the tensions at their grandmother's house. Neverland becomes the place
where children begin to worship a creature of shadows, which Sumter
calls "Lucy." All gods demand sacrifice... It begins with small
sacrifices, little games, strange imaginings. While Sumter's games
spiral out of control, twisting from the mysterious to the macabre, a
nightmarish presence rises among the straggly trees beyond the bluffs
overlooking the sea. And when Neverland itself is threatened with
destruction, the children's games take on a horrifying reality—and Gull
Island becomes a place of unrelenting terror.
