One can never ask too many questions in this contemporary horror about a teen girl who gets invited to the soft launch of a luxury resort and finds their wellness practices disturbing--and deadly.Ariana is ready to get away. From the chill of a New York winter. From the anxiety around her volleyball injury and what that means for her future.Thanks to her new friend Oakley, she can do just that. Oakley has offered Ariana an all-expenses-paid trip to her parents’ wellness retreat on an island off Barbados.The Dream resort seems like the per-fect escape. At least, it did before lifestyle guru Juniper-Moon started introducing sus-pect activities like psychedelic mushroom tea  ceremonies and bee venom facials.And as disturbing accidents start happen-ing around the island and tension between the guests and staff builds, Aria realizes she and her friends might not be in paradise after all. Now it’s no longer a question of when but if they can make it home alive.
